Default Can a 911 do an Endo?

Like the title says, can 911s do endos? I'm talking actual endos. Rear wheels up in the air, front tires planted, while the car is stopping. I've looked for videos but every "endo" video is like on a race track or a cartoon. I'm thinking it should be possible but I'm not sure how the engine over the resr would effect things.

Not sure this would be possible on a low, stiffly sprung car with engine sitting in the back. Maybe you can try going in reverse, Rich?

No no no... I would prefer 7 pages of replies. Can you reword your reply to not be so civil or practically helpful?

I was wondering if it was something like that. Coming from a GT Pro Performer, they have great front brakes as well. That being said, it's not usually the brakes that are the issue so much as losing traction.

The idea of trying it in reverse sounds possible, but the stock suspension has so much droop travel that it might not work.

911 can definatly do ends. I saw a compilation of Killer B's raleeyes that show lots of bad wrecks. The Porsche could not make the corner flipped sideway about 4x then end over end at least 2x.

Group B was eventually stopped as it was killing to many people.
