You mean an Axis spin. Yeah, i used to do it to warm up my tires b4 a race. find your self an empty parking lot. (make sure its huge) and get a hose and soak an area pretty good. drive through that to get your tires wet. then proceed to the middle. Rev and drop the clutch at about 2500. preceed forward and throw the car to the right or left depending on which eye dominant you are. In first gear keep the revs betwwen 6000 and 6200, then let off and let them drop to 4000 and the punch it. this will swing out your back end. keep doing this till it forces you to shift to 2nd gear and do the same thing. by the time you would shift to third, your car will be rotatin around either your front right or front left tire. (like an axis) as soon as this happenes shift to 3rd and hold the clutch. Now your finished.

WARNING: this will eat through a set of new tires in one axis spin if you hold the peak to long. I would recommend doing this with cheap winter tires as they light up the best. when you make alot of power you can just hit the gass and lite up all four tires.

I loved doing that at stoplights!!! talk about intimidating.

David, stock? Never tried that before I modded. Speaking of tires, I ordered the Falkins.

Sorry about that, I should have linked them. I'm not sure that this link will show the wheels, if it just takes to the selection screen, the RC's are three or four screens from the begining in the middle.
