Ok I tried searching for this but couldn't find it anywhere. Before I left for college I was screwing around with a full tuned V8 vantage. I was doing full throttle launches with normal traction control and super softs. On one launch I let it wind up to red line and then slammed on the brakes while holding the gas down. The revs dropped almost to idle, but then the front wheels locked up and the car accelerated. Of course because the wheels are locked up you have no control whatsoever, but it was pretty fun either way. I don't have my Ps2 right now, or any sort of export hardware so I was wondering I someone would recreate this and post pics or vids.
 
ummm. Wouldn't this happen to almost any car in the game if you did the same thing? Doesn't sound like a "trick" to me or anything specific to the Vantage.
 
The point was that I wanted someone to post a pic or a vid, because I can't do it myself. Oh and I tried this with several other cars but was not able to recreate it. You could probably do things like revised brake balance and different tires, the vantage just seems to do it naturally.

You can to the same "trick" with some of the RUF (Porsche) cars.
It's nothing special actually.
