I did a half a donut one time (what should have been a 3-point turn turned into a ditch to ditch rubber wasting u-turn instead) and as soon as the power shifted to the opposite tire it launched me and surprised me a little.

Did you realize that this thread was dead for over 7 months before you brought it back?

Hope you guys are doing it on gravel, dirt, or some other loose ground/snow. Doing this type of stuff on dry pavement is what ruins drive-train components, including the expensive tranny.

I'm sure a one wheel wonder isn't too good for the spider gears either.

I saw some awesome drive line abuse on YouTube yesterday, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NBl-8...eature=related

Videos like those remind me of the smell of burnt ATF.

I finnally did my first pavement donut with mine today. I never though it would do it so it was a total surprise and an accident, lol, so I dont have a vid. I was just turning around and saw some other guys playing in a parkinglot so i decided to nail the gas so they could hear a real truck, and to my very much surprise before i could straighten the wheen out i was looking back at them. I havent been around that fast sence my mustang. I kinda wanna do it again but is still think it was a total fluke lol,

Dodge Rams cant do burnouts, theyll use too much gas and run out before the tires start to spin.
