Me too, i wonder if AWD can do that. But on the other hand I would never in my right mind do this to an expensive car ever! I would end up paying for new tires that would eventually get worn out and out of round causing vibration, pulling, poor handling, etc and noisy transmission and worn out brake pads. Stupid idea

Nobody does this with good tires... this is what you do just before you trash your tires and brakes. Not that I've ever bothered.... I seriously doubt that the AWD will allow this considering you cannot turn the traction control system off on AWD.

WOW all that from a 300. Imagine the GS models now have more than 100 hp over that car.

Pretty neat video. Should have pulled off some donuts before he finished. Check this video out on YOU TUBE[/URL]. It's my GS going 0 - 60. [URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iIcEm_zTblM"]
