Spanner
That would just create shedloads of understeer though, and it'd spear straight on regardless of turning the wheels.

I was going to ask Jamsport to set up my coilovers but I've just been put off by their customer relations.
Maybe I'll sellotape the trays to the sides of the rear wheels and do it anyway.

You'd just drive straight backwards as you can't change the direction, so drifting would be impossible unless a change in the surface (ditch etc) ocurred
