-I had an awd with a center locking diff…was cool

-rad vid of the heel and toe rev matching vid, thats dam near impossible in the snow, in fact i have only been able to pull it off a few times in the best of conditions it is also used to keep turbo cars on boost for exiting corners or whatever, its called brake boosting, surprises the heck out of 5 liters on the highway. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9h6T-WrNEcs

-avoided tons of deer living in the Kootneys, the most memorable ones no brakes were used but throttle to pull out of avoidance induced drift. A front wheel drive will straighten you out even if your ass is passing you, just keep your foot to the floor and point the wheels where you want to go. A not so good example ha ha http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HrZPAAMCNwA[HTML_REMOVED]feature=related

-All the new fangled driving aids are great for public highways, even a trained driver can screw it up in a panic situation. Abs has hurt me more than helped. Some high end performance cars have off switches for abs or traction control.

- and……. what was this thread about again?
