OK I have a new record. Drift angle over 150 degrees. Yes it’s possible. 🙂 Here’s the path the car traveled laid over its google earth image. The DriftBox can export coordinate data which google earth recognizes, making this easy. Obviously the lot was full of snow and no cars were there. I started at left, drifted a wide arc, flipped the car around nearly backwards real aggressively to brush the snow bank at bottom of the google earth image where cars would normally be at the bottom of the lot, kept it going and snaked an S between the concrete medians on the way out hitting about 80 degrees of drift angle. On the datalogs speed is in red, drift angle in blue and yaw rate in black. Their scales are displayed to the sides. ![http://innovativetuningdl.com/temp/SnowFun/GoogleEarthBackwardsHairpin.jpg](http://innovativetuningdl.com/temp/SnowFun/GoogleEarthBackwardsHairpin.jpg) ![http://innovativetuningdl.com/temp/SnowFun/SnowFun1.jpg](http://innovativetuningdl.com/temp/SnowFun/SnowFun1.jpg) ![http://innovativetuningdl.com/temp/SnowFun/SnowFun2.jpg](http://innovativetuningdl.com/temp/SnowFun/SnowFun2.jpg) ---

Hehe. Google earth uses satellite images taken once in a while. If I’m reading Google earth right this one is from April 2005, but the lot hasn’t changed since then. ---

I did what I planned…just brushing the snow bank at the hairpin. There’s no sign of it on the bumper and I barely felt it as I brushed it, but my muffler is louder now. It doesn’t get any closer than that. You can see how the speed drops while I’m facing almost backwards from the direction the car is going with all 4 tires smoking. I definitely would not try to duplicate this as I doubt I’d get lucky and pull it off twice. ---

This is absolutey awesome. So often people brag about what they did, and usually rely on photos and videos to prove it…but this is definitely one-upping that! ---

I used to have a 240sx with LSD, good suspension and snow tires and I VERY seriously doubt I could do this in it. I almost definitely would have put it straight through the snow bank as 2 tires wouldn’t have reversed the momentum enough. ---
