Yep, awsome driving!
I don't encourage risky driving, but I must say I had a bit of fun the night before I went to get my tires replaced. It had snowed a little so I did some nice donuts in the parking lot at work and did an almost pefect L turn with the handbrake, but I hit the foot brake too, so the car just stopped. lol I wish I had video!

nice vid - seen it before too....
Talk about Noob....
Usually pretty good at it, but the other night I grabbed the brake instead of the clutch, in a bad attempt at some heal/toe action coming up to a Red light....
Luckily it was late and no-one was around... (must have been too tired) but geeezzz... the seatbelts work a treat !! LOL

Haha nice seatbelt test mate. At least you didnt do what some Toy Yaris driver did in front of me yesterday...lights were red, always red, and the 'turn right' arrow turned green...and he just went! lol I beeped twice, just to let him know he was gonna get a ticket, and then he stopped, in the middle of the x-junction, and flicked it in reverse, SHOT backwards and only just stopped like 7 inches from my bumper. Freaked me out something rotten ey...thought he was gonna ram me..
Anyway - for handbrake work..search FWD reverse parking trick in youtube. something with a Honda Civic doing a reverse park should come up..its pretty awesome, he just reversed at a 60 degree angle into a parallel park, between two cars, until he could go no more, stuck the handbrake on to lock the rear tyres and then just did a burnout with the front tyres, wheel full lock left and settled in a perfect parallel park...
Tarq - thats why experts say use left foot for clutch and right foot for accel/brake. Although double clutching is a little different, if thats what you mean by 'heel-toe action'..

How many of us have never made that mistake? lol I know it happens, the turn light changes or the other lane starts moving, so you go too, but when you catch yourself doing it, stopping and reversing in the intersection is about the worst thing you can do. Did he think pulling that manuever would save him from getting a ticket? lol Good thing you didn't pull forward Josh!
I checked out that Civic video. Neat trick. Check these out:

Yeah so did I but its just SO much funnier when they bash their mates cars a few times. Amazed said mates did nothing to stop it though..
