Eh, 15 mph drifts in the rain don't seem too impressive. He needs to go faster and get sideways more. Theres a guy online who does some good drifts, I think his name is Ken Block... ?

I'm assuming he's just a kid, and if so, that's not too bad.

I love the E39's. It sounds like that one has the muffler delete.

+1 But he did a lot better than I would.

Drifting near the edge of that tree slope wasn't too bright, but congratulations. Car sounds good. Those BMW's look so smooth. Looks like it has a lot of under steer though when your wheel is lock to lock and your rear end is going straight you were plowing front tire.

Ken Block......that name sounds familiar.

Isn't he like the CEO of BP or something??

Then there is this other guy called Gymkhana that is his Vice-President or Secretary or something like that....

Those E39's are my favorite M5's.... they look so clean.

dude, 90% of the time the pavement was wet?!!! Thats nothing to brag about, if pavement was dry, that thing would not have enough power to do shit. Move on people, nothing to see here.........

 

[StuStang]

Uh... wasn't bragging, its not me in the car, just a vid that I thought was cool and decided to post up.

the E39 M5 are great looking cars. The drifting the driver seems to have some skill. I personally would not have been trying to drift around a few of the corners. I live in Portland Oregon I thought i mite be able to recognize a few of the roads but i'm unable to.

 

[flattrack53]

The kid can drive fairly well. Some of those roads look a little sketchy

Being the current owner of an 02 E39 M5, I thoroughly enjoyed that vid. Thanks for posting it... ! :beer:

They sure do. ;-) I wonder what exhaust set-up this guy has? A lot of my M5 owning friends do the "muffler delete" mod... !
