two40 Posted May 26, 2002 Share Posted May 26, 2002 I've heard of a couple of ways to start off a donut. How do you do it? What's the easiest way to start one and keep it going? *disclaimer* naturally these are done in a controlled environment and not at my local rsl carpark at 3 in the morning Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/394-donuts-you-know-those-things-the-cops-eat/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's funny.... When at my mates PRIVATE skidpan, I gennerally just start in the middle (away from everything), full right hand lock, rev up to about 4000rpm and dump clutch... A quick snap into second and there you go. You'll need to correct as you go, but that should give you a good start. Try to keep the revs to around 5-6000rpm by feathering the go peddal. If it's wet or a bit damp, just start off in second and dump it at 4-5000rpm.

Birty Posted May 27, 2002 Share Posted May 27, 2002 Don't worry about dumping the clutch, just let it out in first, at a roll, put it on full lock, and put your foot down. No need to waste your clutch. Then slowly let the lock off, and hit opposite and keep going between the two, you'll get the feel of it.

two40 Posted June 14, 2002 Author Share Posted June 14, 2002 found a very very suitable car park to learn the ways of the donut. it's a 50x50m (roughly) carpark with brand new bitumen that is smooth as. no bumps, no spead humps, no cameras, no ppl, no roads, no houses. just brand spanking new bitumen crying out to be used. it's located just south of the city, about 10 min from cbd. it's not a residential zone and there isn't any real roads so no cars drive past. if you are interested in joining me late one night, drop me a pm. i'll be heading out there prolly after tomorrow nights cruise.:burnout: Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/394-donuts-you-know-those-things-the-cops-eat/#findComment-16831 Share on other sites More sharing options...
