Timing,
I Cant get the video to load but theres 3 main variants

half turn on the move (this is the hardest one to do at speed but it aligns relatively easily)
brake bias to front ABS off, drive bias to rear
clutch, brake hard and it will start to swing (at low speeds you tip the steering and snap the handbrake, this method is AKA J turning)
select reverse as it comes around
floor the noise
drop the clutch as the rear wheels approach the direction of travel and catch the steerig back to center if its moved.
you may need to be on the brakes and the noise utilising the brake to stabalise it in reverse by anchoring the front end and trying to "pull" it down the road in reverse or by getting back onto the clutch to stop the engine braking effect from exceedin the tractive effort of the rear


if its the leteral spin into reverse thing. (easier to do but hard to keep control of the direction)
sling it into a sliding spin, grab reverse tun away from the turn slightly and timing it right dump the clutch so the wheels pick up traction when the tail end is pointing close to the desired direction of travel if your reverse speed is too high for reverse gear when the back end picks up grip get back into the clutch straighten up the turn and let it roll braking gently.

if its a stationary donut into reverse. (easiest to do and point and the most fun)

hook into the donut, into the clutch smash reverse counter steer and dump the clutch as the tail end approaches your desired exit direction.
modulate throttle and clutch to control the wheel spin.


Learning to do this is all surprisingly easy in a unimog with bald rubber and a skid pan.

Nice.

But why the obvious 'no hands' posing by the driver? Poor example for all the utube educated rev-heads :angel:
