- colto, on 12/29/2007, -0/+120Part of me wants to practice this to perfection then do it randomly when my friends are in the car just to scare the ***** out of them.
- inactive, on 12/29/2007, -6/+74Great trick if you are a secret agent in a car chase. Or to impress the girls if you have a small penis.
- DeathJux, on 12/29/2007, -4/+64Sweet sassy-molassy, my guess is that most diggers can barely master the art of parallel parking, let alone this sort of crazy crap.
- ariez84, on 12/29/2007, -0/+48I tired it on my automatic corolla and now i have to go to a mechanic tomorrow.
- cricketsymphony, on 12/29/2007, -0/+47what are you talking about 'now that'?
- DeathJux, on 12/29/2007, -0/+29Shhhh! You dare question The Algorithm?
- badwithcomputer, on 12/29/2007, -0/+23bookmarked because you never know...
- tayf, on 12/29/2007, -0/+22This vid should be titled "Fun With Hire Cars".
- J0415, on 12/29/2007, -1/+19how do I do that in an automatic?
// serious - chops, on 12/29/2007, -6/+23I've said it once I'll say it again, you nerds have no appreciation for automobiles and the very presence of an automotive section on digg is a waste.
- inactive, on 12/29/2007, -0/+16Because it was used in that show?
- keyo, on 12/29/2007, -0/+15Automatics are just plain ***** to drive. They are also complete arse on hills.
- theholyraptor, on 04/07/2008, -3/+16how do I do that in an automatic?
//sarcasm - tabularassa, on 12/29/2007, -0/+12my rearview mirror is broken. I'll use this technique from now on
- PixelEater, on 12/29/2007, -1/+13Brilliant assertion databoy. Almost made me run for my confederate flag emblazoned Dodge Charger there. Then I noticed the video was British. Back to brewing moonshine I guess.
- trogdoor, on 12/29/2007, -0/+11I'm pretty sure that it's harder to do without a clutch, you would need to shift in and out of neutral at just the right times when changing direction.
- PixelEater, on 12/29/2007, -0/+10Osmosis man. Digg users have the added benefit of the mental mastering of whatever's hip, even while they're afk.
- Rotzooi, on 12/29/2007, -2/+11Dugg for the legendary Tiff Needell, who might look and act like a soccer dad, but whose driving is easily as good as The Stig's.
- theholyraptor, on 04/07/2008, -0/+9while I'm not car nut, I believe most stunt driving loses some of it's finesse in an automatic.
- inactive, on 12/29/2007, -7/+15How did this hit the front page with 20 diggs... cmon now Digg...
- pendrachken, on 12/29/2007, -1/+9Be a kid in wisconsin, snow + cheap beat up rear wheel drive cars = tons of fun.
- counterplex, on 12/29/2007, -0/+7The first episode in the series indicates it's a Ford Puma
- MrBabyMan, on 12/29/2007, -5/+11Cool! Stunt drivers used to call this a "Rockford" slide. Anyone who's ever seen a car chase from any episode of "The Rockford Files" knows why.
- Handonam, on 12/29/2007, -1/+6yay tiff needell
If you're wondering, that came from teh "Burning Rubber" DVD - BitterPeace, on 12/29/2007, -1/+6I'm gonna try this with my SUV
- archiegaff, on 12/29/2007, -0/+5Because 5MIN know how to beat the Digg Algorithm. They SPAM their way to the top everyday with their fake accounts. Digg doesn't seem to care or know how to stop it.
- Bisclavret, on 12/29/2007, -1/+5pretty bad ass.
- CaptnHector, on 12/29/2007, -0/+4The same way you do it in a manual: handbrake turn, switch to reverse, flip the steering wheel, tap the brakes and put into drive.
- Markpdotcom, on 12/29/2007, -0/+4...because you might need it one day while being chased by bad guys in your car and also have your laptop and wifi connection near the motorway, that stays connected at 100mph?
- masterm1nd, on 12/29/2007, -1/+4That probably means it wasn't dugg by "voting blocks" or "friend groups" who have lesser individual vote weight.
- UNL1M1T3D, on 12/30/2007, -1/+4Yes, Jim we know it's you. Your user name told us that.
- krische, on 12/29/2007, -0/+3Well, I guess now you know what to do next time you have a rental!
- XHashmeerX, on 12/29/2007, -1/+4Watch everyone care.
- Digg90210, on 12/29/2007, -0/+3Did you mess up your transmission? If so, you may have forgotten to use the brakes sufficiently.
Next time, try it on a rental car first! - inactive, on 12/29/2007, -1/+4Hello Lifestyle category.
- lowerlogic, on 12/29/2007, -0/+3This should be added to the driving school curriculum.
- blahtastic, on 12/29/2007, -0/+3"Your car has been crushed into a cube. You have 30 minutes to move your cube."
- Frostman3D, on 12/29/2007, -0/+3I bet digg moderators can bury or front page a story at will.
- hatchetbearer, on 12/29/2007, -0/+2anyone know the make/model of this car? oval emblem in the grille looks like a ford to me
- chudgoo, on 12/29/2007, -0/+2i can't wait to scoop up a cheap fixer-upper "only rolled once" Acura RSX after people start trying this
- viclazlo, on 12/29/2007, -0/+2these manuevers are typically used in escape and evasion to protect a VIP. the bootleg turn is often used to reverse course out of an ambush or a roadblock.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bootleg_turn - skizzy, on 12/30/2007, -0/+2are you that "experienced pro"?
- mirunit, on 12/29/2007, -0/+2Warning, I do not think this will work well with an automatic - just FYI.
- timbo458, on 12/29/2007, -0/+2Can't wait to see all the newbie drivers trying that one!
- timbo458, on 12/29/2007, -0/+2Better buckle up and put on a helmet,no forget the helmet!
- anarchytv, on 12/29/2007, -1/+3I am so going to try this in my private plane...
- re0turin, on 12/29/2007, -1/+3ooo! like the suck for a buck lady!
- cvm4, on 12/29/2007, -1/+3Definitely do not try this in your own car. Make sure it's a rental or borrowed ;)
- mesoiam, on 12/29/2007, -0/+2this guy is the master of it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c0lRwH54uHw
