you should have got it sideways at least!

It is RWD!  ;)
Hi Tunnie. It's a 7.5 tonner, drive on a a car licence, or you could when i was you age. Started out on these when i was 19/20 tender yrs. before i was HGV positive. Trouble is despite being RWD they don't drift. If you push 'em they kind of "yomp", lift a rear wheel & bounce around, any more & it's all OVER!!!!!
    Now drop the trailer & play about in the tractor unit "Bobtail" & these babies drift like a Cortina on acid!!! (So i'm told) !!:D :D 8-)

Just don't try to handbrake the tinker. Mate of mine tried it with a 7.5 and took all 4 tyres on the rear axle down to the cords.
