Before anybody freaks out, I'm sure that was on a closed private course. I know how people like to freak out about how thinks might appear illegal.

I didn't see a sign that said no U-Turns, did U?

Didn't do that but... In my 84 2.8 Ranger I did have it sideways in a 4 lane highway the other day. I work at the local AFB, and last week was shift change so we did a crew lunch at the local buffet. Well I was running a little late, nobody was coming from the other direction so I decided not to wait on the yellow light to turn red. I didn't slow down a bit leaving the base in fact I may have sped up a bit. Well I didn't know the truck had the guts to push the back tires in front of the front, much less do it while still being within the speedlimit. I ended up practically drifting the truck out of the entrance of the base out onto the highway. Yeah I think I got a few jaw drops from other drivers on that one.

Wish I could pull one like in the vid though. Maybe soon. Does doing it in reverse count?

I think he used the brake a bit before it swung around..that's the trick

I had mine doing a nice drift up at the transport station lot...caught a nice puddle and did a good 25 foot drift...t'was nice wish I had a video camera!

My old 4.0L 92 with a locker did that quite well....the locker was the best mod i ever did to that truck. Cops didn't like it though
