How to do Donuts With Your Car 

Lol I taught my mom how to do donuts in my high school parking lot, cop drove by but we just waved and left, people do that all the time so he was chill.

i think it depends on the country really, idk

Don’t know where you live but in the UK the only place available to do donuts is parking lots 👀

@@mj6463 On reddit two guys were arrested for drifting in empty public lot. They did so because they crashed and wanted to learn car control. Charged with reckless driving. Supposedly officer didn't even see them do it - they just confessed. Don't confess.

@@worksmarter6418 good point

Same 😂

🤣😂🤣😂

I like 💗 it but i don't have a car

🤣

Don't forget.... a target to hit...

I wonder if you have a fuse or something to disable the cutoff. That's a real bummer! I drove a rental car that had that ECU cutoff once and it was the worst

Is it a DCT?

You might be able to trick the switch, we do that with my Fiesta ST. There's a blue pressure switch we tape up and it fools the ECU. Give that a shot!

Mine is a 2007 Audi A4 B7 manual, not sure if there is any fuse for ECU cutoff. I read in some forums that there may be a way to disable the cutoff but can't find anyone local that can reflash the software to enable left foot braking. Any ideas are appreciated :)

You might get lucky and only have a brake pressure switch, being an 07 and all. Go look at your brake pedal and see if there is a pressure switch that isn't your brake light switch. The Fiesta has one so if you jab the brakes the fuel pump cuts out. I hope it works out for you!

It will work the same with an open diff, but you might find it's easier going around one direction than the other. A lot of RWD cars with open diffs tend to spin the right rear tire more often than the left, so doing donuts counterclockwise is easier than clockwise. This isn't always the case, but if you try both directions you'll probably find your car likes one more than the other.

@@Teamoneilrally Hmmm interesting I didn't know this. Doing my research on donuts before attempting 😅 got my first BMW a 135i which has a open diff

Depends on where you do them, private property is fine but anywhere else is usually illegal, that being said it’s unlikely you’ll get caught in a parking lot if it’s secluded. I know ur comment is 2 years old but I figured I could answer since no one else did lol

@@pop_steam6964 oh okay well thanks for the help and the info I really do appreciate it a whole lot and also does that include drifts/burnouts?

@@animelover-tw2xl yea if a cop sees you doing that they’ll probably give you a ticket, if a random person sees your license plate and calls it in you could also get fined, taking your license plate off is more trouble than its worth so that’s out of the question, if you have a racetrack nearby to your house you might be able to ask them to use it if they don’t have anything going on. I’m guessing you don’t have private property to practice on so that’s why I’m telling u all the options I can think of lol

@@pop_steam6964 well thanks for telling me all of this information I really do appreciate it a whole lot :) :D :P

@@animelover-tw2xl no problem homie

basically yeah, just make sure the rpm’s are high enough or you’ll stall

It's just a stock BMW limited slip.

Need, no. Want, yes.

Thanks. i will get more practice and see how its going

One thing to be aware of: A lot of RWD cars with open differentials tend to spin the right rear tire easier than the left rear tire. I'm not sure exactly why this happens inside the diff, it's just the path of least resistance to spin the right side than the left side. SO this is only important because if you want to drift around a corner, you need to spin the outside rear tire to break the rear end loose... SO most RWD cars drift around left corners better than they drift around right corners. This isn't always the case, but if you're running an open diff you'll definitely find that one way is easier than the other.

Thanks! this is something new to me. going to try it on pavement and see the tire marks left behind. if it so i will start by practicing left turn first and later on get a LSD

Sounds great, have fun!

Basically: Your right foot on the throttle is controlling the rear wheel speed, your left foot on the brake is controlling the front wheel speed, and there's a little battle between the two over actual vehicle speed. Ideally you're on the gas enough to keep the rears spinning, then squeezing enough brake to keep the car's speed where you want it.

Yea, I don’t think you’ll be able to get the back tires spinning very well on an automatic, you would have to jam it into drive after bringing up the revs in neutral which is extremely bad for the car.

In modern autos you can, like the DCT and ZF boxes where you can actually pop the car into manual and select 1st or 2nd gear.

This is one of our rally school cars, an E30 325i.

Team O'Neil Rally School Ah, good to know. Thanks! :)

lol

Try it in reverse.

need to be RWD :)

Nope

...just go in reverse, with a little bit less precision. hahaha!
