It's weird seeing something so heavy slide like it weighs nothing
[video=youtube;QNbkapSwEFU]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QNbkapSwEFU[/video] They try the tanks aswel. I must wonder how they get them all way there to norway? I can understand cars can be lifted in airplanes maybe APCs but tanks?! They must have weather balloons for them I would think.

The AAV in the first video is probably the only thing it can't carry just due to the height. Those were most likely brought over by ship.

All it requires is hitting a certain speed then attempting the turn. The simulators do a good job of letting you know how slow you need to go to make a turn but our instructors encouraged us to try drifting :v:

Multi track drifting.
