Ok, I almost never go on this side of te forum, because of the fear of getting flamed, as it would be my first post, ...so umm, don't flame

Well I got this idea, on my bicycle which will still be my daily... ...rider, till oct 23rd, what I do is I brake on gravel and I fishtail through 3 to 4 cans having them between my wheels, under the sprocket.

What my question is if u can do this with the 240(except with big plastic sheets, or paper sheets) , while still being stock plus lsd and meybe some kts's, (don't have one yet ), I personally think it's possible, and will be trying it (when I get my 5spd, and lsd), the thing is that I don't think a stock 240 can swing the back end back and forth quickly enough to clear them, (maybe by dumping the clutch on the apex of the corner or before, and braking a bit to turn faster). Little sketch I drew (not the best but u get the idea, but check out some details on the inside )

Has this ever been done?

well, 1 because It's relly fun, and I have WAY to much time on my hands2 because I don't think anybody tried it3 because It's a challenge

so u think, it'd be able to swing so fast?

Don't drive on gravel, it makes your car dirty, and puts a bunch of dings in it.

Then I'm guessing u haven't seen my car yet, and the lot has tiny pebels that are almost like sand, so there's nothing to worry about

you can do it easy if the platic things are really far apart putting them closer together will make it harder...

i think i understand what your talking about. i dont think it can be done... you dont really have good enough control in gravel to swing your *** back fast enough i dont think.. but hey you could give it a shot

well im gonna try in gravel first, with them spread apart, than when I get a hang of it I'll go to a closed parking lot, and make the sheets smaller everytime i clear all of them (they are going to be either round taped papersheets, or spraypaint)

This will happen after oct 23.

so if u guys want I'll have a video

Ummm Just setup cones and go back and fourth around them...

ANYWAY... yeah it's possible but you need a LSD and a bunch of power, it would be a burnout where you let the *** swing back and forth while on the breaks... Dumb and pointless but if it floats your boat go for it.
