You did the first ever doughnut, ever to be done in a car....ever?
Yup! Back then it was even new for bikes to do it and it was because I was from a bike background that I familiar with it and decided to give it a try.
A few years later Nigel Mansell did it after winning a GP and he was generally credited with doing the first one.
Back then most bikers & car drivers were pretty restrained in what they did, limiting themselves to conventional burnouts and it was only a couple of years earlier that some bikes had started doing doughnuts.
Even if someone digs out some other car that did a doughnut before (that I'm not aware of), I'm CERTAIN they wouldn't have done so many at such high speed, so I'd settle for being the first to do that.
If anyone is to dispute my claim they'd better have video evidence as I've produced and for the record my date can be verified by pictures of my car, that were shown in magazines at the time.
