Dry spin

[Mihnea Cotet]

The guy didn't remove any axle nor lock the center diff, he's spinning a
rear wheel and a front wheel as well, at some point it's pretty well
noticeable...
I dunno how just the rear or just the front can slip and what causes this
exactly but last winter I was doing the same on the snow in a huge parking
lot... and just the rear was spinning...
All I know is that a Tor$en car can't ever do this (they do much bigger
circles because all 4 wheels are spinning, or at least 1 front and 1 rear
wheel, which causes much larger circles and it sure is a lot less funny!
