Go into a gravel parking lot and give 'er ;) unless it's a van you should be concerned with it flipping :eek:

I remember those days, everyweek something would fall apart on my dads old corolla. Thats what happens when you pull an e-brake on dry pavement @ 80 km/h

Where do you plan on doing it? It would be easier on the car if you did it on ice or gravel. and if the cars a POS (and assuming its FWD), go into some gravel parking lot where like no one goes, put the e-brake up, put it in reverse and give 'er ;) :eek:
