Never do a u-turn in your EVO because people will laugh at you.

that is a repost and yeah that dude has some skills considering he held it together for the whole maneuver.

i love all those videos with those dorks in mustangs and g8's trying to show off by doing hard straight acceleration and losing it and crashing into on coming traffic. i will do a search.

there is another one that i can think of where a dude in a g8 is trying to merge into traffic and does the same thing pretty much.

there are a few of these and looks like the same street and intersection.

i looked into those more and realized that it is "mustang weekend" somewhere. a lot of stupid crap happens there you would think it would be policed better. i'd be pissed if some idiot in a mustang spun into me because he can't manage to accelerate in a straight line.

No, doing full throttle "180 burn outs" is perfectly legal.
