The equivalent of a "doughnut" in an AWD (All wheel drive) or four wheel drive car.
Because all four tires spin at the same time while doing a Heli, the entire vehicle rotates in a tight circle around it's near center of gravity, as opposed to only the rear rotating around the front of the car like in a regular, rear-wheel-drive doughnut.
Helis are easier to do than doughnuts, and usually result in tighter, faster rotation, but your car often has to have a lot more horsepower to break traction.

A (usually Japanese) sports car/sedan that has lots of power and goes fast in a straight line, but is too heavy or awkward in the handling department to be useful at cornering.
A battle cruiser can also be any vehicle tuned up with massive amounts of power, but no other modifications to improve handling.
They cruise around and look to line up at stoplights and smoke other cars in a short drag race, but other than that they stay away from competition.

That Supra is a battle cruiser; it can run 10's at the strip, but start hitting some turns and my Skyline will wreck it.
You should get rid of that Prelude, its a front wheel drive battle cruiser, aka useless.
