so watching the XP1K video and seeing it drift sideways with a yank of the turning brake, i wanna do that too.

Hows it work on a "locked" differential?

can i do this on any UTV?

A guess is they are running in 2WD with a cutting brake hooked to the rear wheels only and initiating drifts e-brake style?

When they first posted the vid I asked questions about it in a thread and Holz posted pics of the system and answered questions. Yes it works with the front brakes.

Does anyone make a cutter break for utvs I think it would be fun as hell to have one. It would be cool if you could buy a kit.

I've tried to ask if drift cars used the fronts for the turning brakes and usually hear "no", but I don't think those who have answered really do know.

I think that would be the only way to plant the front end and keep the rears spinning.

It is a push/pull dual MC setup. One master cylinder works the LF brake, the other MC works the RF brake. If your familiar with circle dirt track racing, sprint cars, modifieds, late models, etc. use the LF brake on tracks that have very tight corners, or are short in distance to assist turning the car on corner entry.
