I can't be the only one to sing the last few posts as Freddy Mercury... I couldn't stand to see the thread get back on topic and let this epic 86-inspired remix fade away.

Tada Wooooot,
Didn't mean to spin out



And I couldn't go out of turn because it then just becomes self indulgent!

Also, its very easy to do with on an automatic FR-S (with traction control and VSC turned off of course).

Its all about the Scandinavian Flick.
Awesome! If I could press a button for pedal dance that would be great!! all my RWD cars had 350hp or more and Positraction rear end, nothing electronic in the cars except the battery, distributor, and radio. Powerslides are best. It's not a drift and not a burnout...this way more fun... looking forward to doing some.

You have too pull the two ABS fuses #s 10 & 11.
So you should be able to wire in a fused toggle switch, then you you can switch off at will.
