How To Spin A car 180 Degrees In Reverse

MonkeyNuts · 07-15-2007, 07:37 PM

1. Put the car in reverse.

2. Select a spot straight ahead. Keep your eyes on it, and begin backing up.

3. Jam on the gas.

4. Cut the wheel sharply 90 degrees (quarter turn) around and simultaneously drop the transmission into drive. Make sure you have enough speed to use the momentum of the car to swing it around, but remember that going to fast (45mph or greater) can be dangerous and will flip the car and strip the gears. Turning the wheel left will swing the rear of the car left, turning it right will swing the car right.

5. When the car has completed the turn stop on the gas and head off.

this works well, i first tried it in a carkpark in the evening, and after it has just rainned helps to save shedding your tyres

pressing the brake in the middle of that will make the car swing around quickier, think of doing ahandbrake, the car swings around when the back wheels are locked. pressing the brake in reverse will act like a handbrake

I used to do this in my mate's Clio in his field. I used the handbrake to spin it, but I guess using the normal brakes would have worked. So much fun! I miss doing them, but I'm not trying it in my Megane. Apparently they are easy to roll and I don't fancy explaining that to the insurance company.
