I like how you say go and do it in a parking lot, I can only imagine a guy trying to explain to the officer why he was doing donuts in a parking lot after watching this video.
Lol I taught my mom how to do donuts in my high school parking lot, cop drove by but we just waved and left, people do that all the time so he was chill.
@@mj6463 On reddit two guys were arrested for drifting in empty public lot. They did so because they crashed and wanted to learn car control. Charged with reckless driving. Supposedly officer didn't even see them do it - they just confessed. Don't confess.
Looking forward to the AWD donuts video. I have a 50/50 split but my ECU cuts off throttle when trying to left foot brake so I'm not sure if I can really do good donuts with precision, looking forward to hear your thoughts Wyatt :)
I wonder if you have a fuse or something to disable the cutoff. That's a real bummer! I drove a rental car that had that ECU cutoff once and it was the worst
Mine is a 2007 Audi A4 B7 manual, not sure if there is any fuse for ECU cutoff. I read in some forums that there may be a way to disable the cutoff but can't find anyone local that can reflash the software to enable left foot braking. Any ideas are appreciated :)
You might get lucky and only have a brake pressure switch, being an 07 and all. Go look at your brake pedal and see if there is a pressure switch that isn't your brake light switch. The Fiesta has one so if you jab the brakes the fuel pump cuts out. I hope it works out for you!
It will work the same with an open diff, but you might find it's easier going around one direction than the other. A lot of RWD cars with open diffs tend to spin the right rear tire more often than the left, so doing donuts counterclockwise is easier than clockwise. This isn't always the case, but if you try both directions you'll probably find your car likes one more than the other.
One thing to be aware of: A lot of RWD cars with open differentials tend to spin the right rear tire easier than the left rear tire. I'm not sure exactly why this happens inside the diff, it's just the path of least resistance to spin the right side than the left side. SO this is only important because if you want to drift around a corner, you need to spin the outside rear tire to break the rear end loose... SO most RWD cars drift around left corners better than they drift around right corners. This isn't always the case, but if you're running an open diff you'll definitely find that one way is easier than the other.
Thanks! this is something new to me. going to try it on pavement and see the tire marks left behind. if it so i will start by practicing left turn first and later on get a LSD
Hey I've got a curious question is it legal to do donuts over there in new Hampshire or not and if it is illegal to do donuts then where can I do donuts at any advice would help and BTW great and fantastic video team o neil RALLY school keep up the great work
Depends on where you do them, private property is fine but anywhere else is usually illegal, that being said it’s unlikely you’ll get caught in a parking lot if it’s secluded. I know ur comment is 2 years old but I figured I could answer since no one else did lol
@@animelover-tw2xl yea if a cop sees you doing that they’ll probably give you a ticket, if a random person sees your license plate and calls it in you could also get fined, taking your license plate off is more trouble than its worth so that’s out of the question, if you have a racetrack nearby to your house you might be able to ask them to use it if they don’t have anything going on. I’m guessing you don’t have private property to practice on so that’s why I’m telling u all the options I can think of lol
It is possible to some degree, depending on certain factors such as the level of grip. You will not be able to maintain a donut in front wheel drive for very long. You can however do a donut in front wheel drive, backwards. Ideally rear wheel drive is the performed drivetrain.
Thanks for the great vid! It was hard to interpret your subtle foot movements when you were doing the donuts. Do you left off the gas when you apply the brakes? or do you accelerate while braking to compensate for the braking of the rear wheels? Also, if your left and right feet movements are directly related to each other is there a delay/sequence to the movements? Lastly, i assume the brake foot more closely controls the front wheel speed and thus overall speed of the car. How do you gauge how much gas to apply?
Basically: Your right foot on the throttle is controlling the rear wheel speed, your left foot on the brake is controlling the front wheel speed, and there's a little battle between the two over actual vehicle speed. Ideally you're on the gas enough to keep the rears spinning, then squeezing enough brake to keep the car's speed where you want it.
Yea, I don’t think you’ll be able to get the back tires spinning very well on an automatic, you would have to jam it into drive after bringing up the revs in neutral which is extremely bad for the car.
This has got to be one of the greatest jobs ever.

i think it depends on the country really, idk
Don’t know where you live but in the UK the only place available to do donuts is parking lots 👀

@@worksmarter6418 good point
“...get someone to stand there....”
Same 😂
🤣😂🤣😂
I like 💗 it but i don't have a car
🤣
Don't forget.... a target to hit...
I'm digging these videos and how they progress from previous videos.
Binge watched pretty much all your videos the other day. Hehe, great stuff! Cant wait for more.
I wish I could know by memory half of the stuff he knows. Awesome, keep it up.

Is it a DCT?
You might be able to trick the switch, we do that with my Fiesta ST. There's a blue pressure switch we tape up and it fools the ECU. Give that a shot!

Nice you have explained it in its simplest form
Sweet. I never thought left foot braking would help in a donut. A how to do a J turn would be a cool video!
Great work 👏
Thank you
Thanks 🎉
lmaoo look at the metal near his accelerator pedal foot, it's so polished from the use
i wish we had some place like this in Melbourne lol
King of the cone 2019 here I come
Great teach
If you have the option for back brake or front brake what is better ?
Thanks for the video.
Good teacher
Great teacher indeed
Gotta love that E30
Nice aerial shot
Can you make a video of a dornout of a car without moving on one area but spinning locking from tyre
I am going to come to this school soon!
Random question,, do we have any dry lakebeds in the northeast ?
Any steering tips ,thanks .
What year bmw?
Do you have in reverse donut? Even not actually doing donuts.. reverse around the object
Awesome
Would that work the same with an open diff? Very nice and clear tips as usual, btw. Keep it up!
It will work the same with an open diff, but you might find it's easier going around one direction than the other.

@@Teamoneilrally Hmmm interesting I didn't know this. Doing my research on donuts before attempting 😅 got my first BMW a 135i which has a open diff
Can you do a video with the 02 subaru wagon? I have a 03 wagon with a full jdm power train swap.
Burnouts.. Donuts... now that's a pick up line :D much better than those geeky technical vids :D
Nice Shoes Wyatt! #ballerstatus
I think you should explain when you apply more brakes, how tighten up the turning circle or hw to loosen it.
what does dumping the clutch mean just letting it go really quickly?
basically yeah, just make sure the rpm’s are high enough or you’ll stall
Great
which engine is used
Is the rear diff locked or welded. seemed like both wheels were spitting dirt and I would think only the inside (unweighted one) would be.
It's just a stock BMW limited slip.
You should put another camera for the steering for us to see how you do it.
Google: how do I do donuts
Google: how do I dump my clutch
I’m obviously in over my head 😂
Learned in 2seconds wow
So that can’t be done with automatic cars!?
Thx for the video.
if i practice on gravel, do i need a car with LSD ?
Need, no. Want, yes.
Thanks. i will get more practice and see how its going

Can you share

Time to give a try on my baby Camaro.
Is it impossible to do it with front wheel drive? Has anybody tried to defy physics and proof the opposite?

Um so the car needs to have 3 pedals...🤔🤔🤔?
Yea, I don’t think you’ll be able to get the back tires spinning very well on an automatic, you would have to jam it into drive after bringing up the revs in neutral which is extremely bad for the car.
In modern autos you can, like the DCT and ZF boxes where you can actually pop the car into manual and select 1st or 2nd gear.
Are the hand brakes up
Nope
tried it with my Civic, did not work :(
lol
Try it in reverse.
need to be RWD :)
Is that O'Neil from GTA 5 that Trevor killed him and he's still alive?
A skill everyone can use, including soccer moms.

Handbrake????!!
AWD DONUTS 🍩
My friend did doughnuts tighter and faster then this in my first car. So much fun
Mmmmm...... Donuts
Best to do donuts in someone else's car!
Have someone to stand their🤣yea not smart
FWD donuts ;) lol
...just go in reverse, with a little bit less precision. hahaha!
sweet i just burn one clutch now gonna burn another xD
