This is just so unnecessary but..
I was just driving around in a 535dA and thought, heck, why not turn the DTC and DSC off and have some fun.
I turn them off.
I'm closing in on a wide corner.
Applying some throttle and booom, drifting goes the rear end.
My god! It was under control all the time
Some may say that some stability control kicked in but... Damn was hell of a fun. The rear wheels spun etc.
It's a damn diesel man!
This is what the world has come to 
Love it.

It's so linear and progressive in slides and fully controlable! I wonder what does it do if you hit the redline in a drift! change to 2nd?

Just read your signature.
Your remapped 530d is really 311hp now (instead of 218 hp) ? How did you do this ? No issue ?

Oops I did it again!
I tried it. Usually it did as following: DSC deactivated (well OF COURSE), M1.. Usually it shifted from 1st to 2nd, then redlined in 2nd as the wheels were spinning. Then it just builds up revs and shifts to 3. Managed to do a nice 20-30 meter black mark on the road
I LOVE THIS TORQUE MONSTER! And you should too
Hey, do you want to see me do a sloppy drift? Have to ask my bro to shoot a clip.
