its tough in a fwd car, even harder when the e brake is foot operated.

hint...get cheap bald tires, find some ice. avoid walls and pedestrians.

One Stunt that has really impressed the ladies for me...

Required: One crazy sober Friend.

As you are rolling down the highway, roll down your window. Put both your arms crossed over on the door and lay your head down as if you are sleeping. Have your friend guide the steering wheel with his left hand, stretching his left arm out. He also rolls down his window and lays his head on his right army.

Now just enjoy the drive...people driving past you will Honk, but pay no attention and get some ZZzzzz...

Find a large open snowy parking lot.
Put it in reverse. Get moving and cut the wheel.
Let the fun begin!

Find 2 tray (u can find them in Macdonald or Luby) let ur rear wheels sit on it then turn ur steering wheels then floor it in a open parking lot. You will be amazed wut ur car can do HEHEHE
360 or reverse 360 if u turn ur steering the other way rite after u do a 360 keep floor it . It only spin ur car around. Only u krazy enuff.

REVERSE 180 -

Quite simple if you ask me...i nailed it on the first try.

hit the reverse at however speed you want and then just decide beforehand which way u want to turn. if you want the car to turn to ur left and then whip around, turn the wheel to ur left. if you want the car to turn to ur right, then whip it around to the right. just when ure starting to whip the steering, hit ur brake and let the car do the rest. THATS THE EASY ONE

to do it with a little more style but requires faster reaction time is this:
do everything as you did above BUT, half way into the turn when u shud be 90degrees from where you started, let go of the brake. your car should have enough momentum to keep it turning. Then, slip you gear down 2notches from R to N to D5 and then stomp the gas... ull do a reverse 180 and keep going. the first thing mentioned was a reverse 180 with a stop.

ONLY DO THIS IN AN EMPTY LOT... DO NOT GO AROUND TRYING TON YOUR OWN. I WILL NOT ACCEPT BLAIM FOR ANYONE MESSING UP THEIR CAR OR LIVES OR THE LIVES OF OTHERS DOING THIS STUNT. - thats my disclaimer

if u wanna learn how to do a fwd 180, well u need a handbrake for that one so i wont describe that right now

OH YEAH, you WONT FLIP over unless youre planning on reversing at like 60mph. but u can do this easily at even 15mph. i did it one time to show a friend and this old lady thought i was gonna ram into her car... little did she know i was whipping it around. another time it was to impress some pple (well more like my friend wanted me to impress them) and yeah they were definitely impressed... dont know why... its a simple trick to do ... reverse 180... yeah its really hard NOT

I did a 360 in my buddies M5 last night. even minus the 400HP, hes still sporting a hand brake and RWD. TL's were just never meant to drive sideways. Ive done it in reverse, no problem, but even with the garbage MXV4's i cant do it like your supposed to...

foward 180 is simple, go straight, hit your ebrake, and when your rear wheels lock up jerk the steering wheel to one side and voila, instant 180. if youre going fast u can pull a 360 too. try it in an empty parking lot on a rainly day, 20mph should get you a full 180

Skaters live in my neighborhood....I tried to hit 2-wheels off one of their jumps. I saw it done on The Dukes of Hazard, it was way cool. Unfortunately the jump crushed immediately and the skater kids got pretty upset. I feel bad, if any of you are out there, sorry skater dudes. Maybe I should've tried it with the General Lee.

Damn, I just noticed this thread hasn't been touched in just about a year. Ohh well, I haven't wrote about this very much.

I remember back when I had my old 1985 Honda Prelude (Not Si). I was always messin' around in the dirt and rain. I was able to ebrake slide my car in to a parking spot. (No other cars around.)

But the coolest thing I ever did was a 360. I was in a big Sears parking lot in El Cajon/San Diego, it was raining and very wet outside. I decided to go try and do a 360.. I went about 30-35, turned the wheel and pulled the ebrake. NOTHING! Just a little more than a 180. Grr... So I go a little faster (40mph).. Still just a little farther. (220 degrees). I had my friend in the car and he was telling me that I should shift gears in to 1st and dump the clutch just past the half way point. (190 degrees) I had tried a couple times (with a weak clutch) and I was starting to get a hang of the required timing. After about a total of 4 or 5 times in the same parking lot and trying the same trick with just slight improvements towards my goal of a 360 degree turn, I was getting anxious to leave. (Police, etc...) So... Just like in a cartoon where the light bulb goes off next to the character, I realized, "FASTER! I MUST GO FASTER!". I decided to start my approach at 50-55mph. Ohh yeah! Pull the ebrake, get half way around, turn the wheel in the opposite direction, shift in to 1st and dump the clutch, THAT'S A 360 EBRAKE. I was still going about 10-15 mph on my exit.

It's a RUSH to pull a 360. I suggest it for anyone who has the experiance and the vehicle to successfully pull this off.

BTW, Watch out with all this E-BRAKING, it'll throw off your alignment. It did myne. Then I had to roll on a spare for a couple days and that seemed to almost fix the problem. LOL!

I found this page with some video of a couple ebrakes and a reverse 180.
