Tractor drifting - 02.08.2007, 02:43 PM

Thought this would be cool to post, it amazed me that they could get it around the course http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uH5hYmUxxEo&NR


Work because i gotta, play because i wanna

People here hate Nitro, I love it. I start it, run it about 50 ft from me and it dies, I go after it. Perfect exercise

I remeber driving a tractor in Poland, all i have to say is its a hell of a bumpy ride! ;)


The problem with nitro's these days are that they arent brushless... LOL

That is so awesome. Surprised it didn't tip once it started getting traction.

My brother showed me that video over a year ago - its pretty impressive.

Tractor Trucks can actually have over 1000hp and 2000lb-ft of torque easy if built up - some even have around 2000hp and 3500lb-ft of torque.

those would be the american ones, in europe they have about 600hp tops.
most are around 300~450hp.

After watching this video, it looks like the truck is doing more powersliding than drifting. Still, even that has a whole set of challenges...like not flipping over!
