I think it's important to go and intentionally slide your car around in a safe area. I initially did it for fun but its kept me from wrecking my car many times because I knew how to handle my car sliding around.
Yes this definitely saved me 100's of times i once even spun 3 times on a road and recovered from hitting a pole all cuz i knew how to handle the car from screwing around in parking lots so much.

I will also agree that parking lot drifting and driving helped me out in my 2 and a half years as a pizza delivery man During the New England winters.

For you guys serious about rear wheel steering. Be able to turn around in your own lane. Of course you can always use the hand brake without mod but you need to keep your thumb on the button 100% of the time.
Here's a simple drawing on how to convert your emergency brake to a fly-off.
Basically you take out the paw, rebend the control rod, drill a new hole in the paw. Reassemble.
I haven't done it on my vw yet.

WoodStock... I was born in the wrong decade. That would have been the best thing in the entire millennium.

Tried some parking lot fun last night on our first snow fall in over a year. The mk3 just didn't want to slide for me, it has brand new tires and is much heavier than the mk1s usually play in so I guess that's why I had no luck. Pretty disappointing but I guess it just means I am much safer
