This video further proves that drifting these things like a car is (nearly) impossible. You have very little room for error because of the way the SS grips the road with the edges of the tire. We all know how well these things stick to the road in a curve. When you are intentionally trying to push it past that sticking point the outer two tires edges will want to bite into the asphalt and regain that grip. Whereas on a 4 tired car the edges of the tires don't come into play as much. You are just sliding the flat contact surfaces across the asphalt. And when it does catch you have the weight of a car holding you down on the ground.
SO Combine the wedge shape and the lite weight and the way the outer edge of the tires grip the road you just don't need to be drifting these Slingshots around corners trying to make big tire smoke.
