I bet the driver of the White Volvo who joined the roundabout shat his pants [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/lol.gif[/img]

You certainly couldn't do that in a modern quattro with ESP [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smashfreakB.gif[/img]

Fantastic!

Talented driver and total nutter.... an interesting combination.

blimey, how is that possible in a 4wd car? Even Tiff couldn't maintain a drift for very long in the RS4.....

the wet road undoubtedly helped [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/169144-ok.gif[/img]

probably an auctions car judging by the crayon on the windscreen & it looks like a typical mechanic on roadtest kinda stunt LOL

you'd be surprised what you'll do in a car when it aint yours [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/sekret.gif[/img]

If you have ESP, then you also have a button to turn it off.

Sort of. Audi's ESP deosn't really go off without some further intervention than pressing the ESP button. At the Driving Experience at Silverstone, the instructor told me that in the RS 6, even with ESP 'off', as soon as you brake it comes back on, and it wasn't every fully off anyway. They did the 'hot laps' having done something to the cars that made the ESP and ABS warning lights come on - disabled the ABS sensors on the wheels perhaps?

He did drive it well though, we nearly lot it a few times but recovered it well.
