FYI they now have a General Discussion and Debate Forum here https://honda-tech.com/zeroforum?id=40 which you should probably have posted this in.

oh, trust me, we did that tonight too. we took his 1970 chevy nova and did that too. but it wasn't good as mine turns but doing dougnuts and smoking out the back tires was fun.

And maybe Darwin will catch up with you.

Stupid. Good thing you don't value your car, your life, or the life of anyone around you.

Every now and then when it's wet outside, you might catch me pull the ebrake to do a 180 (I'm very good at it - so says a few different people that have ridden with me)..

Anyways, go get some trays and go traysliding if you need to do 360's. Don't pull your ebrake, that's the crackhead way.

Not that I think this is a good thing, but it's his life and his car. There was no one else around, so it's kind of ok to do 360. But damn at 75 mph, that's how you flip you'r car over... I did a 180 in back going about 15mph in the back of my dad's wearhouse when the it was damp, so I can relate.

Ben:

The problem with this is, you can't account for any other drivers. You never know who may be around, including other drivers or kids on skateboards, etc. I've seen too many people die needlessly by goofing off. It bothers me that he come on here saying himself how stupid it was, yet he still brags.
