Winter Drifting - :-)

Mother nature dropped off a present last night in the form of snow. One of the reasons I purchased the 2020 JCW Clubman is because I read that MINI updated the ALL4 to the X-Drive as the AWD underpinning.

This morning I had a little time to test how the ALL4 will perform while drifting in a parking lot. I must admit I was impressed with how linear/predictable the car will drift and maintain said drift while steering and using GO-pedal.

Enjoy!

Had a 2010 WRX few years back, the car gave me so much fun, drifting, dount-ing in the parking lot. Basically wherever there is snow, the car can power slide anywhere. Thats what we have in the NE~
For the modern car, completely turn off the stability control is nearly impossible, did you hold down the stability control button for a few sec to disable the feature?

And yes, need video LOL

Agreed on the video ... I will have to work on that ...

Yes, simply press once will deactivate some safety features ... press and hold will deactivate a little deeper allowing the fun factor to increase... LOL ... Refer to your manual ...
