with a properly adjusted (well a little on the tight side) e-brake you
cn do
it easly enough on wet pavement but it can get hard to control if you
are
not careful. just be sure you are on a surface where if you loose
control
you wont hit any thing. another thing you can do is on dry pavement
put
some loose sand in the area where you want to slide that way when you
get
off the sand the recovery is a bit easier. dont forget to get that
clucth
in before you get past the first or second click on the e-brake.
doing burn
outs, and e-brake slides dosn't really hurt the car perminantly. the
clutch
will take some abuse but that is not that hard to change in a day. it
takes
some pratice to get both right. feel free to contact me for more info.

Good luck getting a DeLorean to do a handbrake turn, the handbrake
sucks in all deloreans. Unless they put vaseline on the road for you
I doubt it can be done!
Anyway, that said, it would not damage your car to try it.
Best wishes,
John
