How many of you intentionally like to kick the rear end out?
Every once in a while I come across this nice bend (almost a 90 with no stop sign)on a wide back road on my daily commute, and I rarely ever see anyone down there... So if I'm feeling like letting it loose I'll pop it into 2nd at around 25mph and gently let the rear end step out a little bit! Then I let off and counter steer to correct. The best part is, it's smooth asphalt so not a rock anywhere! and on the issue of safety, I have a wide range of view to see if anyone is coming, and if I were to spin out I'd go straight into the grass and be perfectly fine! Any of you guys enjoy this LSD?

Knowing how easy it is to lose control of a car doing that, never.
However, I do find myself rolling on it pretty hard from 20-25mph and letting the converter blow the tires off for a few revolutions. |

It's only easy if you don't know what your doing.

GUILTY!
I've been known to do this in some not so great places but some times the urge just overcomes logic. I stop myself if I see an old woman crossing a street or a soccer mom with a van full of kids. HAH I'm joking! But, I do love drifting in a corner with this car. I have always wanted to do this --- |

Every single day. Hence the dealer gave me an unsolicited quote for two new rear tires when I was there the other day

That's why my rear tires only last half as long as the fronts.

You should put a supercharger on and then you can spin them tires from just about any speed. I think the most miles I got out of my back tires was 10,000.
