Ignore the first 10 seconds of BMW. Sorry if this is a repost.

Nah - drift BIKE!!

[bugjuice]

that's pretty impressive given that trucks have a very small usable rev range, and to change gears quick is hard..

Ladies - give me a semi..

It's a Euro truck so will have a syncro box,no weight in the arse,so pretty easy to toss it out - but scary shit all the same!

[bugjuice]

yeah, no weight on the back is a lot easier.. but their redline is something like 700, isn't it..?? bike doesn't even idle at that.. yadda yadda.. yeah, i know why..

I've noticed a lot of the drifters over seas in the popular cars, turn them into utes so they're easier to drift..

The manufacturers logo on the front says it all really. That is a MAN's drifter.

Done a few laps of Ruapuna in Ron Slaters race truck about 90-91 and it got driven like that they whole time, it ran a manually shifted auto box and felt much like being in a rally car just a lot further off the ground

Ron used to drive his modified on our dirt track on Waiheke Island around the same time - he brought his truck over once and drove around the track...well and truely sideways! Took it out onto the road outside and did a burn out....serious stuff.

Kids these days are doing nothing new - when I worked in Winstones truck shop in the early 70s we used to pour diesel in the yard and smoke up tandem Albions! We also played ''tiggie'' in the yard,you tagged the other truck by ramming into it! At General Foods we used to race each other around the back streets....I remember stepping TK icecream trucks out on the corners...two abreast full tit down the main drag of Otahuhu.Oh boy,those were crazy times....
