I don't know if anyone has seen this video or not but...I don't think a marauder can be made into drifting right? By the way this video isn't or.shouldn't encourage anyone to try it.

Sandy / dusty road helps, but that looked a little nuts.

Just a guess, because I did not pay attention to such things when I was there, but the road surface must be hot as hell = greasy as hell:o....... Could probably slide a class 8 dump truck on that road if one got up enough nerve/speed....

Feel free to chime in all you desert rats (former military, consultants, expats:D) Am I talkin smack:eek: or.......:burnout:

When I saw this video I thought one thing...possible?
Haha but Idk though I feel like the marauder is too big in a way.to be able to drift. But point is..I don't think I have the skill or balls to try this haha

Yeah. Video is pretty cool. I would try that if we had a large enough area to do so. The Merc has no problems doing donuts thats for sure.

I once in the winter time while drilling in a ice covered froozen field. I drove my 45,000 pound drill rig/class B truck up tp about 30mph and as soon as I hit the ice, I slammed on the brakes and did probably 8 to 9 full rotations in it. Fun times.

Heres the truck. Obviously I had the drill tower lowered.

LOL in traffic and on a public road. I wonder what the other drivers were thinking when they saw that.

A marauder is an easy car to drift compared to pony cars. The longer wheelbase makes it easier.

Big wide sandy road, I'd do it. Not when there was on coming traffic, but I'd do it.

this activity has gotten the nickname "suicide drifting" muslims believe that their death is preset when they are born and that nothing they do can change when and where they will die. so they do **** like this a lot. there is a lot more videos of it and it get a whole lot scarier
