That's why god gave us two hands- one to push... and the other hand to pull!!

Anyone with power steering can park using two hands. It's just laziness or bad habits.

LOL----- teach me how to drift that way..
2 years ago at the Melbourne Motor Show, I saw a precision driver in his 206 drift into a parking position. Like no jokes, it was a standard size parking position that you would reverse into (and get it wrong 1 time out of 10). I think I got a video somewhere.. purely amazing!

shit thats amazing. Well reminds me of my drifting X3(by drifting i mean rolling the car a 100 times in attempting)

vinno · 02-25-2007, 06:50 AM

it was amazing.. but bloody dangerous at the same time- he also used pedestrians as markers for the drift.. he also went on two wheels (left/right side I mean) doing a whole lap of the circuit.. damn im gonna have to look for pics from that motor show..
