Handbrake turns

Maybe a strange question.

Can you make handbrake turns with an M3/M4 with a DCT gearbox? Who have tried it.

I guess you could could. There is a feature in DCT that opens the clutches when the rear wheels lock up. I experienced it when driving in very slippery conditions.

Why would you handbrake turn in a car with 400ft pounds of torque...

Obviously, you need to do this if you didn't order the Park Assistant option.
