Lol, don't monster trucks have 4-wheel steering?

But hell yea, I'm all for the 5th Gen drifting, especially in Formula D. I remember seeing a video from Speed Channel a while back where there was Adam Carolla and this other guy, and they were driving G8 GTs around a track, and the other dude did a power over drift (I think) and Adam Carolla is like, "Was that a drift?" and the other guy's like, "That was a drift my, friend."

its almost impossible to drift an AWD car/truck.


however, in NFS:Most Wanted, there is a challenge where you are driving a cement truck... and I've drifted that bad boy something fierce... and its fun as hell on the game... so with enough power adder equipment, it is possible... but really, its probably best left done in the game... lol

That would be awesome. One question though, does the track have to be dry?

The Camaro should "drift" just fine but I think a better car would be the Mach 5.

Since driving forwards is apparently passe', let's talk about how fast you can drive backwards!

Not so much speed, but it's got some angle.
