Well yeah, but it's also MUCH cooler to whine about everything on EvoM. Get with the program man!

tires on their way out. steering wheel wasn't turned at all initially, and never turned all the way. Computer was set up for lauch control so no clutch was burnt. and the DT is fine. Thanks for the flames. But this was the first time I have done a donut in this car (and the last) so I figured I get it on vid. Just from one donut doesn't mean I don't respect this car and what it can do.

His car, his problem. As long as he makes no warranty claims, I have no issues...

I thought it was cool. Better to do that in your evo than mine.

IT would be cool if it looked like the Dahlbak GTI w/ quattro when it did that. That little GTI spins like a top, it stays stationary the whole donut, it's nuts.

Thanks for lookin out....But I'm not going to argue with everyone. I agree its not good for the drivetrain or transfer case or whatever is being stressed. Like I said, it was a one time deal so I might as well get it on video. It turned out to look pretty sick in my opinion. If I wanted to ask questions about what would get messed up by doing this, I would have posted this in the tech forum....but whatever, flame away

OUCH!! You will see at a later date, that this ONE-TIMER is what will cost you lots!! save the momento, and the memories of this when you have to write a check for a "short-lived" Clutch and TC. That was painful to watch. they are made to do that on dirt and gravel, not a parking lot!
