Default Swedish Tank Drifting!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xhbBWNcV5dA

I did my time in the military repairing these things... and when no officers where around



Sweden's military is built on conscription, and until the end of the Cold War nearly all males (women are volounters) reaching the age (19years) of military service were conscripted. In recent years, the number of conscripted has been reduced. One good thing about this is when you meet someone you dont know there is always one thing in common to talk about and that is the time one made in the Swedish Armed Forces.

So were you the ones doing this, if so... did you use the top half to kinda get the weight to shift. On a side note, I could see that in a Halo game, drifting a tank and knocking down a few Warthogs...lol.
