Donut

alfredo · 10-22-2006, 09:21 AM

I was wondering how you do a donut while riding (a 360° turn). I've tried it but flipped my quad, so I have to be doing something wrong...

lean over the front bars and lean the direction your going to turn... pop the clutch and give it **** on throttle. the key is you have you keep the tires spinnin so fast thy wont catch traction.

lean in and forward and keep it almost pinned and try pushin th inside peg ou with ur foot.

and make sure that u dont let off the gas in the middle of the donut. bad things happen when u do that...

Here is one of mine. They are easy and very fun. You shouldn't have a problem doing them on a Pred. I had problems on my sister-in-laws raptor. Almost flipped it over. So I stay away from that and stick to my Pred. Love em.

Is it possible on all surfaces with all tires? I can do it on snow with Maxxis slicks...

I'll try it in our yard, after a rainy day.

I have done them on sand with sand tires and on dirt with dirt tires, and mud with dirt tires. Just practice. One of my most favorite things to do. That and power slids, and roosts. All good.
