My first "new" car was an '86 Pontiac Acadian, 2 door. 1.6L inline 4 cyl with an automatic transmission that I quite literally drove like a go-kart. Would regularly take corners at speed by throwing the shift lever into "L", locking up the rear wheels, allowing me to drift into the turn, then back into "D" and nail the gas pedal to the floor.

Only ever popped the bead on the rear tires twice. Fortunately, refilling them also reseated the bead.
