This is my first video with my new camcorder, a Canon Legria HF M46, about a beautiful Dodge Charger R/T with the orange livery of the "General Lee", the famous Charger driven by the Duke cousins in the TV series "The Dukes of Hazzard".
Here you can see a famous italian drifter, Federico Sceriffo, trying to make some drifts (powerslides) with the muscle car.

We think it's cool that someone is actually driving that car. Like really driving it, not just taking it down the quarter mile. No disrespect to the dragracing guys, but this definitely requires more involvement from the driver, and gives back more in terms of fun and adrenaline.
+Drift.ro Yeah, you can see how much the guy was enjoying it in the first part of the video when he had his arm out the window and in the air.
+Drift.ro
That's obvious, and I'd say that every drag racing guy would agree that drifting requires more attention and skill. That's especially the case with something like a 1960s era Charger. Cars from that era were definitely better suited for straight line performance.
I have ten times the respect for someone who can do that in an old 60s muscle car than in some modern sport compact, sports car, or even pony car. They didn't have the tires, suspensions, or nannies to keep you from losing control back then. It takes pure driver skill to handle an old car like that.
Watch Cleetus McFarland then.
The best pal the Duke boys ever had!!!!
+Jay Simons The man in black.
he’s thunder on the high way looking bad bad bad
Bugkle up and i show you what i mean.
Take a look look back there sirens blowing red lights flashing everywhere
Wow, that motor is LOUD. Sounds just like I remember it on the show!
440 👊

@@alexanderrahl482 it needs the 440 lol.... still bad ass ....
They used whatever they could find.@@kevinhawley962
Look at all the body roll, that’s one talented driver to be able to swing that large Charger around the course like that. Also gotta love the roar of that V8 engine. Awesome car.
Drifting an import is cool, but if you want to impress me do it in a big, old, heavy, stock Muscle car...with an arm out the window... like this guy!
I was thinking the same thing! Getting the heavy ass sideways with one hand is super bad ass! Love the charger!
+BlitzBlazek He wasn't just doing it with his arm out the window. He looked like he was holding his arm in the air yeah this is so cool!!!
+BlitzBlazek
Driving those old cars in a spirited manner takes a lot more skill than the cars of today.
GT Classic Plastic you know to corner you want as little weight as possible right?
But you also have to tune for that lower weight
If you don't it just becomes squirrely
BlitzBlazek getting it on 2 wheels is even harder.
The 1969 Dodge Charger is one of the nicest cars to be shot on film. It has beautiful lines that demand attention!
but not in that ugly ass paint job... I would do a nice dark green on it or black... If I had the money, I would by an 1967 Mustang Shelby GT500 in red with white stripes ore in black, anyway...
NuerburgringFan43 paint job is golden
NuerburgringFan43 ugly ass paint job? wow
NuerburgringFan43 the paint job ur thinking of is an ugly ass paint job mucus green is what u want since you wan't a beautiful car turned ugly, the general lee paint job is awesome, makes the charger stand out.
NuerburgringFan43 The General Lee is the undisputed king of the movie car world, kid. Seeing that paint job is like seeing Jesus reincarnated into the body and soul of a 1969 Dodge Charger.
I can't think of any way anyone can truly dislike this video.. Greatness
He doesn't "trying", he's drifting 🔥🔥🔥
Heavier than two drifts cars combined, live rear axle, leaf springs, high profile tires but sideways all the way.
Look at that body roll! Outrageous yet so awesome.
NOT bad body roll really .................................
Its as graceful as a ballet dancing rhino ... but I absolutely love it! ! ! When you see an m3 doing the same thing its nice, but when you see the charger...its such an adrenaline rush, has such a drama... you can hear sirens and guns blazing ... I just can t get enough of it.
You made the "Duke Boys" proud sir. "YEEE - HAAAW ! ! !"
Why are there other cars there, the general is all you need
+G They ain't nothing against the General Lee.
For a great low rate you can get online, go to the General and save some time!
They brought the rice.
Hard car to get around bends but great to watch, whoever drove her knew the limits, especially with good old fashioned leaf springs...the Dukes live on
I Love watching him give it the beans!! It really takes skill to be able to throw a 50yr old stockcar around corners that way. Bo and Luke are proud! You can tell he's having fun! The General Lee, best drift car EVER!!
this combination of sound is perfect pure muscle and rubber
thank you for actually having the balls to drive that car! Deff not a trailer queen. Yee Haw
GO GENERAL!!! LONG LIVE THE GENERAL LEE!!!
Possibly the best video on TH-cam?
Very cool footage! I have never seen the General Lee drifting before! Hehe nice quality too! +1
Ok
Did some drifting in the 2005 dukes of hazzard movie.
th-cam.com/video/AS4EOoU4iCs/w-d-xo.html
Man, takes talent to get that big heavy beast around corners like that on a dry course and no hand brake.
For an old beast like this '69 that wasnt built to do something like this did very well plus the driver had skills
Suddenly there´s a smile on my face...
The "other" cars from 1:10 , sound like lawnmowers !
Get those little girly cars off the road there!!!
And get the general lee on the road!!
What an almighty roar from the engine.
A few cars drive through after about a minute; and they sound like an electric tooth brush compared to the Dodge!
+blazzingsaddles4 They sound like little girls compared to the Charger.
It accelerates amazingly fast for a car of that size! Nice drifting too, not an easy feat with such behemoth.
I love when people who own General Lees drive them like General Lees. That was some good drifting. Hell yeah!
All i needed was the classic General Lee horn and this would have been perfect:o
American muscle! :)
better old school american muscle cars rules!! ;)
Import guy: Muscle cars can't turn!
Charger driver: Hold my beer.
well looks like them duke boys have got themselves in a whole lot of trouble. again.
Jdm guy: muscle car can't drift
Hold my beer
That's some serious driving skill right there.. NICE JOB!!
I wouldn't say it's trying to drift it is drifting
Rc Thrills. this look like dominic toretto says after wopping that jdm.. who said american cars cant drift
It’s impressive considering this is a stock old American muscle car but it wasn’t really a god drift per say mainly because of the fact that the car couldn’t maintain the slide of the drift around the corners or get a really good angle seen at 0:13 for a split second and 0:20 when he attempts to drift all the way round but the car straightened up
@@user-nw3cc2cd5i leaf springs. Leaf springs say that.
0:26 tell me that wasn’t drifting
When it comes to the general Lee it's not called drifting it's called bootlegging
they need more muscle car videos like this
that just might have been one of the coolest things i seen in a while; someone using an old other than sitting around to be looked at
Awesome to see this monster in action, thanks for uploading
That s#!t was hot !!! The Duke boys didn't know anything bout that!!
Those boy racer cars sound sooo piddly next to that....
The Virgin AE86
VS
The CHAD 69 Dodge Charger R/T
YES SERY BOB. THE GENERAL R/T IS A LEGEND, JUST WAITING TO BE RE DISCOVERED, TO MAKE YOU FEEL LIKE A LEGEND
Hell yes the old General Lee can still show them new plastic cars how they did it back in the day
I just watched this with Banjo / Bluegrass music playing on another tab.
Good stuff!
Everybody in the comments keep talking about how this car weighs sooo much. One guy down there claimed it weighs "4,900" lbs. I didn't know the Duke Boys drove a Chevy Tahoe!
Just kidding. The curb weight of a 1969 Charger R/T with the 440, is actually only about 3,650 pounds. That's pretty light for it's size and seeming heft. Look at some newer cars to see how light this thing actually is. With some more work under the hood, that car could've ran circles around that track waaaay better than that.
+Hype679
That's about what a new Mustang GT weighs. That's crazy when you consider that the Charger is a good couple of feet longer.
Agreed. I own a 1977 Chrysler New Yorker Brougham, with a 400ci big block in it. It has been on the weigh scales a few times. It weights 4700lbs. Now, consider that it is a true 20' long (I have measured it). Now also consider that a Chrysler Pacifica (not the 2017 one) weighs the same and is about 5' shorter. And that a modern-ish Honda Accord weighs almost 4000lbs, when it once weighed 3000lbs, or even less. Crazy.
+johnnymitz It's mainly due to all the safety equipment and regulations we have these days. All those bells and whistles add on weight down the line.
+Hype679 Agreed. And I believe that many of those safety systems in modern vehicles today actually can make a worse driver because they give you a false sense of security. Steering Assist, Hill Assist, Parking Assist, Obstacle Avoidance, Creep Control, and so on. I also believe that older cars have a certain amount of fear factor into them; steel dash, ball-screw steering, no air bags, non-power assisted brakes, and so on. Sure, for the most part these were inferior to their modern versions, especially steering and brakes. But the fear factor is gone in modern vehicles, so that old right-of-passage that I grew up with (start with a slow cheap car as you first one, then over time work up to a fast one because your driving skills have improved) is no longer there. It is the lack of this that makes today's first drivers have accidents (that, and smartphones). But hey, I am dinosaur on this belief.
johnnymitz
I also feel like money is a factor. Many of the folks my age are at ends financially. We couldn't get that fast ride we wanted at a younger age. No moving up the totem pole here. Smartphones are literally our generation's version of Darwinism. If you need the phone that bad, don't drive. And as a person who's driven old and new rides, I'd say they both have pros and cons. Some new cars are pretty scary in a pinch, surprisingly. Snap understeer is not fun.
Just couple things missing...The Legendary Horn and The Narator...
Well, howdy friends and neighbors!
Waylon Jennings
Now that's exhaust sound !
Them Duke Boys is at it again!
Stellar drifting that powerhouse and the most beautiful car!
looks like a really good time. that thing really needs a sway bar and a racing oil pan, you can hear it during the first run running without oil....
General lee drifts really nicely and with style. Great looking and sounding car. Way the general SHOULD be driven.
Best charger video on the web! Nice boys!
So that's what Dom would have done at the end of Tokyo drift
That roadrunner had way more hp than the general
Not as sloppy more clean than that
@@TheJohnwall12 Doesn't matter!!!! The General is way cooler, in my opinion
@@rockfertigaus3760 he’s saying that Dom was driving a Roadrunner at the end of Tokyo drift...
@@Seabee156 ahh ok thx
Best drift montage I ever seen.
The drift king on a dirt road!
TRYING TO DRIFT THATS DRIFTING RIGHT THERE AWESOME JOB!
absolutely loved it!
one word. AWESOME!
Nice.I like this Beautiful Monsters.
You got to love that sound
i wish they still make cars like this proper cars
holy sh*t that thing looks so great drifting!!!
Such sweet, sweet music to my ears.
Now THAT looked fun. Sounded like me in my 70 Fury police car rat racing thru the neighborhoods in Bethesda back in 77-78.
yeeh haw!...the general never die.!!
nothing beat's the General, when comes to drifting!!;-)
I had a charger and a road runner I thought they handled quite well especially the Chargers a couple beers a straight away with some curves was my hobby when I was bored
LOVE that general lee!
So bad ass. Don’t stop
So majestic.
looks like an angel from outside but sounds like a monster from inside :) with other words AN ART :)
...Thank-God I was young to remember the Dukes Of Hazard show...Lots of Good Action....Ol' Rosco pico.!
Right!
That wasn't Bo duke driving, Bo would have done it in half that time.
Hahaha hell yeah buddy
+Jeff Rogers It was probably Coy Duke, although Coy was good too.
why did we ever go away from these cars. I run a 5 speed and 4.11 posi in my MF galaxie and I waste these new cars. it was truly the greatest era of cars there was and ever will be.
Them Duke boys and their binary numbers.
