Gravel drifting HA. I used to do that in my truck. When I drive my girlfriends car I make sure her e-brake is working properly Fortunately, I have rwd.

Do you just do this for fun on gravel roads or do you run at any sanctioned events?

Have you checked the SCCA webpage? There might be some Rally-X events nearby. You can run just about anything in those and they're a blast.

SCCA doesn't alow any "unusually rollover prone" vehicles in their events. So no geo trackers or xb's

the xB really is HARD to roll, some turns ive made with the car, well, it should have flipped. the car looks top heavy, but really, its not, the engine is sunk in the engine compartment pretty deep, to roll it would be a challenge, but not impossible.
