Done it with the automatic too...

Waiting on a left turn lane, when the light for the lane turned green, ECU was off, mash the throttle, turned the steering wheel left and the rear broke loose, creating Zanardi-like donuts!!! People were watching in amazement.

I got mine to kick the *** out yesterday coming from a stop sign and truning left. I was quite impressed at how tight the car felt while slidding and how quickly it snaps back into line. My Pirellis are quite sticky even in the cold, but I can still break them loose easily. But when they catch again they snap you back in the seat. I am quite impressed with how quick this little engine is in this heavy car. Very snappy, of course that could be the under 20 degree temperatures we are having as well. Keeping that little intercooler cold for me.

Are you being sarcastic? What did you think you have to do? We have all seen you doing burnouts on video. Just turn the steering wheel and you will probably do some donuts.

That's a shock, considering how much you seem to like burnouts. But you can do it without dyno mode. ESP off is plenty. I have really only done it in the snow. Although I did do a nice little 180 one time to turn around. ESP off may not turn everything off, but it will still let you do just about anything you want to do, burnouts and donuts included.
