Insane High Speed Drift Trike on Mountain Access Road!!!

Meet Max.  He used to weld up DH frames for FTW and as a side hobby decided to create his own little project to serve the need for frequent adrenaline rushes.  See him below piloting the custom drift trike he fabricated down a mountain side.  Down a road that some vehicles have a hard time ascending.  He decided there would be no better occasion than right after the wedding of 2 good friends, to give this hill a shot. Equipped with only one front brake, a rim brake at that, controlling speed was on;y a minor concern.  Strapped up with a skid lid, he sat down and let the force of gravity do it’s thing for the next couple miles.

How long will those brakes last?

Checking what’s left of the brakes…

It was a rush just watching him rage those corners. The drivers behind said they could smell the rubber from Max’s brakes heating up as he hung it all out.  Want a drift trike?  They are being mass produced by Max yet, but if the demand and money is there, it can be done.  Braaaaap!
