If you kept that leading edge open a little I bet it would have been okay.

I'm sure you know this but 20 mph in reverse is hard on the transmission.

The only time I see people doing this regularly is in Dearborn, Michigan where I grew up. The immigrant Arab population is very fond of going backwards for some reason, will go down an entire block and even corners backwards.

Must be a cultural thing, I never understood it.
