    Default Truck drifting

    Sorry if it's a repost. I don't see how this thing doesn't tip over.

    Seen this video...it's awesome.

    As for tipping over...I think it has something to do with the four rear tires. I don't know though...it's pretty crazy.

    Niccce. Maybe it doesn't tip over because the cab is isolated from the frame. It looks like the cab has the air bags as support so when the truck turns the air bags for the cab "give" instead of being upright and stiff.

    Not even seeing the video, but seeing it has four rear tires.... Its a dualie. Dualies rarely flip over, have an extremely heavy duty suspension and a wide wide rear end. Its hard as shit to flip a dualie. Even shit like drifting will rarely get it to lift a tire.

    No, I've seen duallies drift before, they can do it all day long without flipping over because they have such a wide stance. But the thing on the video, that is something completely different.

    Ah, I was about to mention that next...I didn't know how to word it.

    A lot of European trucks (DAF, Scania, Iveco, Renault) have that on their flat-nose trucks.
