Those little tires in back are sweet. Maybe if I disable my abs and gut the whole car and add 900lbs to the front bumper, I can do cool stops like that?!

after watching the video and talking with a fellow carnut, we have a couple of observations and questions.

no way a FF mini could do those manuevers. anyone know if it is FR? or maybe it's RR, because in order to do a stoppie, it helps to ahve weight in the back.

any thoughts y'all?

it was front wheel drive most likely, he just had no weight in the rear and it was problibly all stiffened up to induce oversteer. I also noticed he had better tires in front (tracton).
