After reading through the "And with a dap of oppo'" thread in the computer games section, I did a quick search and couldn't find a thread of people posting pictures of themselves, or pictures they'd taken applying a quick dab of oppo'

So here it is, shamefully haven't got any myself, but do have this one of my dad's friend in his VXR8

I don't have any pics of the car, but can probably find one of the lamppost.

Posted it a couple of times, but why not again:







Not quite so sideways, although there where some good smoky moments, sadly not caught by the camera:

I'm FWD so that was the right thing to do.

RWD when rear end breaks away apply half arm lock to speed and back off a tiny bit.... or it spits you off the other way if you counter steer and lift off in RWD..... i'm talking from experience whistle


Still good effort though thumbup

Lovely car, and lovely photos! Just on the Montrose/St Cyrus road aren't they? Thought I'd seen marks coming out of that junction in the second picture smile
