Not exactly a doughnut, but I did a 4-wheel circular power slide in Tunisia last October: 3 or 4 rotations. Rescue01 took the video ... well, he almost took the video.
Seen a brand new LRE D3 do a doughnut once in Bala...and then break a driveshaft...
Spiderbaby does have the video I believe.The next American ex-pat that calls it a "truck" is going to find out what 2.7 tons feels like on their foot...

I seem to remember a few "crop circles" at Tixover many moons ago. Could have been started by VA in his RRS ..........................Somewhere in-between my old D3 and what's to come next .........

A few years back I was out in my 110 in the company of a 90 and a 130. The 90 was just too unstable to get a good tail slide on, whereas bot the 110 and 130 could be provoked into being able to bring the back end round quickly when needed - like U turns round gate posts - 90 needed 2 shunts, I needed one, but the 130 zero, just lots of V8 noise (did I say, all three were V8s?)Rob Smith
