I didn’t know Noel Edmunds could drive like that.
I didn't know Alan Partridge had a beard.

Talked to Russ Swift a few years ago after one of his famous parking stunts in the Mini. He also did the drive on two wheels at the time. I asked the same question. Answer was - no mods but the diff needs to be locked or limited, else the drive would go to the wheel in the air and you couldn't move. Anything else can be left standard.
