The bang-bang-bang is a resonance set up between the wheels and the clutch slipping. The only way to put enough torque to slip the wheels is by spinning the clutch. As soon as the wheels slip, they spin and the clutch bites, reducing the torque at the wheels and causing them to grip again, causing the clutch to slip..... etc It's not that hard to get the back end a bit happy - just find a flat bit of grass. I did it myself when I wasn't trying very hard the other weekend at a show held on a big common. I just popped the clutch and hooked the wheel round. It slid beautifully about 3/4 of a turn and came to a gentle stop. Nothing crazy :-) Another way is to loosen your trailing arm bolts by 1 turn and wait for a wet road (yikes). Done that in a 170hp upgraded car by accident. I was only going walking pace and pulled out onto a wet road. She came back under control quite easily, largely thanks to the low kerb! This was on a journey own to the garage to get the car on a ramp so we could remove one extremely stubborn TAB that was loose but rusted in place M thomaspaulmccoy wrote: >Has anyone tried peeling out in a DeLorean? > >When I rev up & drop the clutch, all I get is a loud repeating >banging noise... like someone is smashing into the back of the car. > > Yahoo!
