I literally could not think of a way to make the title not sound like clickbait. This genuinely is the most confusing thing I've found in a long time in this game, and I have yet to find a proper explanation as to why it is a thing. This does not work going forwards, or by going backwards the opposite direction. This makes you turn faster for some reason; faster than if you had clutch braking, in fact.

Guano's B-C 25t AP with 100% crew and no skills out-turned mine with clutch braking, off-road driving, and BIA. That is how dramatically faster it can make some of these tanks.

How to do it (don't lift off any of the keys):

Hold space (or whatever your handbrake key is)
Hold S, then hold D.
Most tanks will spin way faster than by just holding A.
THIS DOES NOT WORK GOING THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION; YOU WILL TURN SLOWER IF YOU TRY IT.

Works in (tanks I've tested):
O-I
TOG
IS-7
Kpz07
T55A
MIVY
Renegade
STB-1
UDES 15/16
Bat Chat 25t (and AP)
Char Futur
IS-7
Bisonte
VK 4502B
Luchs
Very mobile tanks with 3rd gear shifting (WZ-132-1 for example).

Tanks that went slower:
Obj 430U
T71 DA (I'm assuming the CMCD is the same)
ASTRON Rex

Does not work in (tanks I've tested):
113
FCM 50t
Kranvagn
Pz1C
VK 100.01P
Slow tanks with 3rd gear shifting (that I have tested).
TDs and SPGs (that I have tested).

If you try out some tanks, do comment what tanks you tried and if it worked or not. I highly recommend you try this for yourself, because it actually does work.

Streams are Mon/Wed/Fri 1-6PM US East Standard Time (New York/Boston).
