"A brody is essentially a half doughnut, essentially a U-turn but in a
much tighter radius because the rear wheels have broken loose, thus
steering the car. A 180 burnout, if you will. A brody may be executed
either from a stop or while in motion, as long as you travel in the
opposite direction when the maneuver is completed (i.e. not driving
backwards on the freeway because you're a "fast & furious" idiot).

While a full 360(+) doughnut is pretty much useless except for showing
off, pulling a brody can be used in any situation in which the driver
needs to get the hell out of dodge quick. Whether it be fleeing from
police, an army of zombies, or your mother after curfew, a brody will
get the job done, and guarantee that you'll look good doing it."

A brodie knob would certainly make such a turn easier.  And speaking of
brodie knobs and fuzzy dice, where is Alan Wesson when we need him?  As
I recall, he had a vast collection of automotive accessories, doo-dads
and gee-gaws.
