Doing Some Winter Doughnuts (Video) - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

So it snowed a few inches here this morning, and we figured it would be the perfect time to get some doughnut footage. Everyone who puts their cars away for the winter sure are missing out

You owe your cameraman whatever he/she wants for doing that!

You're absolutely right, I am missing my car and not being able to drive it right now, but at least mine will last longer than yours.

cool, spin around faster next time, lol

Did you know that having your car at red-line long enough, Onstar will call. Had that happen to a fellow C5 owner I know.

Yeah, I heard about that. I wasn't anywhere near redline though since I was in a small cul de sac so I didn't have enough room to really get any speed.

True that, I would absolutely put my car away for the season, but they use very little salt on the roads here so there's pretty much no chance of salt damage.

Very cool! That looks like fun! Thanks for sharing it.

Stationary doughnuts are really fun in an AWD 6,200 Caddy.

Looks like fun. Maybe I should try this is my Traverse rental. Camaro's in Cali, I'm in Washington.

truth be told: There really is no better, or safer way, to learn car control than a snowy and deserted parking lot. Makes me ALMOST think of getting mine out...nah.
