MINI parking lot snow drifting video?

Does anyone have a quick link to the MINI doing donuts in the snow-covered parking lot?

I've been trying to search for it, both here and on Google, but I am having problems locating it.

Yeah, I've seen that one, it's good... but I wanted one without an Audi. I know that one of these members has one of their own of them having fun in a parking lot with their MINI... I just can't seem to find it now when I want it!

I believe the video you're referring to was seen on MotoringFile:

Just do it yourself. Nothing better than drifting around in a MINI in the snow

Oh, I plan on it... just haven't had enough snow yet.

I just wanted the video to show some friends who are making fun of me and my snow tires.

Thanks Gabe - that's exactly the one I was looking for. I'm sorry I forgot it was on MF!

Does anyone know the song that's in this one? I remember it off of "Behind Enemy Lines" but it's pretty catchy...

Awesome!

NM...

It's by the band "Feeder" and called "Buck Rogers"


I just experienced my first "power braking" the other day going around in an empty parking lot, that is some fun stuff!
