    People try it all the time here in Utah except it’s on accident, they don’t have 4wd, and normally end up in a wall.

    i live a life on the constant edge of no traction / completely out of control though so i'd give it a go probably.

    What is the difference between a drift and powerslide?
    Powersliding is all about using your speed to your advantage, whereas drifting focuses on the actual act of sliding. The main differences, though, are that a drift begins well before a corner begins, and requires a number of techniques to be employed to hold the slide
    Enjoy!

    Judging by the number of 4x4s I've seen in the ditch, it seems like a lot of people don't quite pull it off.

    People who make stupid “bad life choices” as you call it, kill, maim and injure other innocent people. Take your bad life choices out to some remote unpopulated area so that your bad choices only kill yourself.

    A motorcycle has entirely different physics than a cage, as you know. Motorcycle's are big fun...although I'm not the driver you are. I stunt drive by accident only...:oops:
