The turning radius for a miata is sick. You shoulda seen the tire marks on the road after I did a few donuts. The diameter was probably no more than 3 feet.
 
Not nearly as good as the guy who starts doing that in an intersection, then quickly brakes when the red+blue lights come on right in front of him 🙂

I know that the turning radius for the miata is quite good; what i was trying to refer to is that i'm sure if the person in the vid had a brake bias adjuster (or was able to lock the front brakes) and set the brakes to more on the front, he'd be able to completely slide (without gonig on the shoulder) around instead of having to reverse a little bit and then do the donuts.

I finally found the video on my drive, but I can't find it on the web. It's called omega.mpeg if that helps.

That was fvcking stupid. What 16 y.o. guy hasn't done something stupid like that.

Not funny, no skill involved. I could do the same thing in any rear wheel drive car that had enough power to spin the tires on damp or dusty pavement.
