“Can trucks even drift?” Many might be surprised to hear the term “truck drifting.” Accustomed to the image of powerful trucks rumbling along highways, few would imagine that these “kings of the road” could become graceful “dancers” on the track, performing impressive drifts.
Truck drifting is the technique of maneuvering a truck into a corner at high speed, maintaining a large slip angle, and controlling the vehicle’s direction using skillful application of the accelerator, steering wheel, and brakes. Simply put, instead of cornering normally, the driver intentionally slides the truck sideways in a controlled manner, creating a spectacular and daring display.

Unlike race cars specifically designed for drifting, trucks, with their massive size and heavy loads, demand exceptional driving skills and a deep understanding of the vehicle. Therefore, truck drifting is considered an extreme sport, full of challenges and thrills, captivating a wide audience.
While not as prevalent as in Western countries, truck drifting is gaining recognition in Vietnam. Some off-road racing events have started incorporating truck drifting competitions, attracting professional drivers and enthusiastic spectators.
