first of all it was raining. wet pavement slippery. probably had it in Baja mode. to keep it 60% power in the back and 40% front. definitely would help once you start it drifting

Cool and all, but I just have to be a Debbie Downer here, I wonder how many hours of video were edited out with him wiping it out. There are so many edits its crazy, one minute the go pro is facing the windshield, then its facing Jr and then its not even in the truck. I want to see the wipe outs, there's always wipe outs!!
What’s especially noticeable are the DRL’s being on in several shots and then off in the next. It would be easier to just leave the headlight switch in the on position so nit picking guys like us don’t notice it from a mile away.

you have no idea how difficult that is. I shot a few videos with a drone film crew for a promo video with my truck. Getting such a big vehicle to slide sideways enough that it looks cool is humbling. Its easier on a high grip surface like asphalt. Doing it offroad on a slick surface where the grip changes foot by foot is really hard.

It took me the better part of 3 hours to get a 80 foot decreasing radius slide just right and i'm not ashamed to say so. My scenario had a little bit higher stakes as it was my vehicle, there were trees on the inside, and there was a lake on the outside. Trail was about 30 feet wide.

There’s a reason I watch NASCAR and not football or basketball, I like to see wrecks, ha ha. He is a good driver but I would of liked to see a full 10 minutes including bloopers!
Plenty of wrecks in football, in spite of them trying to turn it into a sissy sport.
