    1. Why do people care about free posts, and total post count?
    2. Who the hell cares about "kill" stories? Maybe idiots with civics and mustangs I guess?
    3. Why the hell is drifting popular, or even a "sport"?


    Sorry to derail this lame thread.

    Drifting...

    Is 1000x harder then people really think it is. There is so much more to the sport than doing doughnuts and sliding for a second in a turn. Do you think you could control a 4th gear slide? Connect turns that mean from left to right with one consecutive slide?

    If you have ever tried it, rode in a car with a good slider, or been to a professional event you will see what i mean.

    1. Adds to your credibility on the site to some degree.

    2. In some venue's where there is video or a good story it is entertaining. The one above is neither.

    3. It's entertaining, like female figure skating. There is a good degree of skill to do it well. Besides, controlled oversteer is fun.

    Drifting is cool/fun......A competition is retarded and don't try and make a case that it is cool. And like anything, its not that hard if you practice.
