Another 'out of curiosity' question...

agarbati · 09-23-2005, 08:24 PM

I'm cruising at 55 mph. I decide to pull the handbrake. Will the DTC kick in to prevent the tires from locking up?

longtran · 09-23-2005, 08:32 PM

well you did it, you tell us.

agarbati · 09-23-2005, 08:34 PM

Actually I'm posing a scenario. Haven't tried it.

arcrox · 09-23-2005, 08:37 PM

your car will implode and create a rift in the space time continuum

SilverE90Sport · 09-23-2005, 09:50 PM

How about no!
But if you were going 60 it would.

romeo26 · 09-23-2005, 10:27 PM

i have one question for you!!!!
what are you tring to accomplish?
if your tring to drift dont use a fwd methode(sp) try downshifting before a corner using heal to toe and drift that way.

ward · 09-24-2005, 01:34 AM

no it won't kick in

the Ebrake is a cable acuated item, and will react as such

David328M-Sport · 09-24-2005, 07:38 AM

different system as ward posted.

that's how stunt drivers and special drivers say for important people can spin the car around 180 degrees and drive off in the opposite direction very quickly. handbrake turn.

Interesting question, I'm wondering what the DSC will do? If all the sudden two wheels stop spinning while two keep moving, won't it try and interveen? It may not be able to affect the wheels held by the parking brake, but won't it do everything it can with the front wheels and engine to compensate.

The only things the DCS can do with the front wheels is try and brake them...as fast as possible! Somone try this out for us

I think you should try it and let us know. Better yet, see what happens at 100.

I was hoping you'd be enthusiastic to try it at 120 and educate all of us and add to your seemingly endless knowledge about everything else.

Wolf359 · 09-24-2005, 04:12 PM

Why just try it? Film it!

I'm sure a video of an e90 doing a few flips on its roof would be extremely popular on the internet!

NaTuReB0Y · 09-24-2005, 04:14 PM

I'll try it.....wait til' I get a loaner....hehehe...hahaha...hohoho!

Dude, you seem nice enough for a feeble minded idiot. If you would rather not have the intelligent and sensible members of the forum making witicisms at your expense then perhaps you should refrain from making stupid statements. Otherwise, it is our duty to point out the obvious to our fellow members - that you are stupid.

Please, continue to regail us with your antics and stupid questions. There's not even a cover charge!
