[V8] Time to make the doughnuts.......

[Charles Wurts]

Have you tried turning the car inside its length in the snow yet?  It 
is a real head turning move as it is one of only a few cars that can do 
it.

With practice it can be done in very tight spots.  Just turn the car, 
induce a slide with ebrake or throttle and turn into to the spin and 
apply copious amounts of throttle.  The car will turn within it own 
length.  You will gather stares from any onlookers guaranteed.

I like doing them when i find myself alone on four lane snow covered 
roads. YMMV  ;-P
