the ESP on the benzos are so forgiving, anyone with an avg skill level can do that... (even with the ESP off, it still kicks in)

A lot of those drifts were torque driven. Not many were actual drifts. Still great driving and an awesome video, but I thought it would be real powerslides.

cool vid, but it doesn't take a whole lot of driver skill to kick the tail out when you've got such a large radius turn and a wide open track...and the torque of the BEAST.

Nice. However, a LSD would be a good investment as it seems.

I totally agree with everyone, the driving and drifting isn't the best, not nearly as good as that one Volvo video. But keep in mind, this guy is beating on an expensive car and it's always good to see AMG's used for their purpose, which I don't see all too often.

Awesome to see the tire melting torque on that BEAST in action. I certainly don't have the skills or the bawlz to do it, but nice VID.

What I want to know is what is the chase car that's taking the video. No smoke from THAT cat! and it's as good as the AMG.
