And just to add my two cents to this whole drifting issue...drifting is retarded.
It's a ricer thing that really got it popular. Ricers are all about what looks cool. A car going around a turn sideways sure does look interesting alright. Yes, it is a little rush to drive a car and hang the ass end out and just be on the verge of totalling your car. And I can appreciate the skill involved to do it in these competitions, but for fuck's sake people..."drift racing" is an oxymoron. The whole god damn point of racing is to get from point A to B or make a lap faster than the next guy isn't it? And the fastest of the fastest, Formula 1...does not have their cars going around turns with 45 degrees of yaw. Gee, I wonder if they know something these drift "racers" don't know?
Want something exciting that will give you the rush, and lots of people want to see it? Let's play russian roulette with cars. We'll have a steamroller head for your ride at a sound barrier breaking 2mph. You'll be given a choice of two boxes. One has your ignition keys, the other has dogshit in it. If you get your keys...then great. Run to your car and move it out of the way. But if you get the dogshit, then that's just there to remind you how much your car is worth after the steamroller finishes with it.
Put that show on tv, or make it a live event. Either way, it'll have just as big of a draw as drifting will.
