I don't understand. Doesn't everyone park like this?

The driver is part of the official Rover MG factory team, who provide driving demonstrations at high-profile events. This parking demonstration is only one of their tricks.

In high school, my friend bought a "blues mobile". It was a big Dodge Monaco with the 440, same car as in the Blues Brothers movies. He disconnected the catch on the parking brake so you could press it down and it would release by itself. He parked that way a few times but with no other cars around. He would also do J skids. Punch it in reverse, hit the brake as you turn, do a 180 and slide it into drive and nail it. Made famous on the Rockford Files.

We also did quite a bit of orchard running up in Sebastapol. Those were the days.
