Re: Random Chit Chat #4
yea, but isn't a donut nothing more than an extreeme case of fishtailing where the front wheels are basically on the same spot?
He slammed on the gas, and then made a hard left as he slammed on the brake.
The ABS kept the wheels from locking, and I don't know exactly what the traction control does or how it does it, but it has gone off when hes coasting through a turn, so I'm assuming that it did something when he tried to donut.
Its a lot easier to do it in our pickup truck though.... RWD no intelligent drive system, and 4 wheel ABS disc brakes.
The Honda Odyssey is FWD anyways, so I think its more like your dad was no match for his drivetrain.
