Yesterday I achieved wheelspin in 4th gear in a borrowed mk4 (I think) fiesta.

The "trick", of course, was to be driving with power over a very humpy bridge (where I knew nothing was coming blah blah blah). Wasn't setting out to do it. Quite mundane really, but the take out of "wheelspin in 4th gear in an over decade old fiesta" is worth something. Then again I wouldn't have been driving the fiesta in the first place if I hadn't in the previous week managed an 800 foot long skid, which also shouldn't be possible (especially given speed probably never got in the double digits).

What things have you achieved that should not be possible?

Anything is possible with budget tyres. laugh

I drove the mk4 fiesta once. It was a rusty pile of ste.



Booted the Chimaera in 2nd and didn't even get wheelspin on a wet road. Winter tyres. biggrinhehe
