We don’t know if it is wise to drift a Soviet car because many things can go wrong! At least many of them have rear wheel drive and they can spin the tail.
Our Moskvich 1500 SL has those attributes and the engine is also quite solid, 1.5-liter SOHC 4-cylinder inline inspired from the BMW 1500, which through the 4-speed manual gearbox delivers 74HP and 83lb-ft of torque.
If it was Mustang from 1986 we would be quite sure that he can perform some doughnuts on the asphalt without losing one tire! But when someone decided to do that let’s see what happened.
We are on the parking lot, the Moskvich is screaming from distance and enters the parking lot with drifting and wait, wait… Watch out, the rear tire left the differential! That’s why we warn you in the beginning, that tire might hurt someone.
Play the video bellow and enjoy the Old Russian made Moskvich screaming on the parking. If by some accident you own one of these and you want to try it then do that on empty area without audience!
Enjoy the video!
