The Internet is filled with various epic Mustang powerslide fails, so the team at EuroSport Tuning decided to create the Should You Powerslide Your Mustang? Decision Tree. This handy chart gives Mustang owners enough time to pause and ask themselves a few vital questions before maiming a curb, ripping off a bumper cover, tapping a few innocent bystanders or worse.
“Why are there so many powerslide mess-ups in Mustangs? Possible contributors could be a heavy engine, short wheelbase, and some have an open rear differential,” says Frank Derks, director at EuroSport Tuning. “But we all know the main factor with these Mustang incidents is the driver. That’s why we decided to build the chart.”
The decision tree gently guides the would-be powerslider through a series of “crucial” yes or no questions. Before a Mustang driver initiates a drift toward a power slide, the driver must decide if it’s imperative to one up the kid in the WRX, to show the fans a little something extra when exiting Cars & Coffee, or to powerslide oneself out of a bout with low self-esteem.
“Of course, the whole graphic is just for fun,” Derks says. “As Porsche and BMW enthusiasts, we understand why some people want to powerslide their Mustangs. We’d like you to put on your seat belt and practice in vacant parking lots first. Keep yourself and your ride safe.”
