More like the end of an out of shot incident, the white Jeep was piling on the revs for an auto. my PC is slightly to the right of Genghis

He was trying to do a handbrake turn & it all went pear shaped. At least he got the car up the right way! Procrastination, mankind's greatest labour saving device!

I thought FFRR's had electronic handbrakes, more like a reverse bootlegger turn. Mad my PC is slightly to the right of Genghis

That was what I was alluding to, I doubt you could do one a modern car with all the electronic safety gear. Procrastination, mankind's greatest labour saving device!

Rolling with laughter Rolling with laughter
If that was a nutter attempting a 'J' turn then sorry, doubt it would work for a fixed 4x4 type unless very wet or on grass.

Unless someone knows otherwise but think of the physics.

Otherwise an idiot. Maybe a stunt of course on a nicked car on someone elses drive .....

Funny though ! FL2 Ex D2, D3, RRS, etc. now all gone.

It has very little to do with how slippery the surface is, it's the swing and let the engine weight carry it through whilst the rear end is retarded, the problem with doing it in a high 4x4 is that there is so much energy in the spin that when the tyres grip the car falls of its tyres Laughing my PC is slightly to the right of Genghis

The Discoverys and Range Rovers with manual handbrakes all had a transmission handbrake on the end of the transfer box AFAIK- which locked both front and rear drive shafts thus effectively applying braking to all 4 wheels - absolutely useless for a handbrake turn but better than a simple rear wheel handbrake for holding the vehicle in slippery slopes

He looks to have tried a J turn and got it all wrong. Jules
