Drifting....
Is it just me or does it do absolutley NOTHING for anyone else?
Sat here watching a few vids. Yea i understand it takes a great deal of skill but its kinda boring...
Wooo going sideways.... arse to far.... wooo doughnut... lots of smoke yay
Would much rather tank it around a track pukkering up my bumhole on some twisties.
I would even rather go drag racing for the sheer acceleration and show of power.
Drifting just seems a bit slow? I know they go fast into corners but its just not that exciting.
I guess its personal preference.
Anyone else think its a bit lame?

watching it is lame, doing it yourself and controling it is fucking awsome. to me its a bit like watching someone do a bungie jump does nothing for me what so ever, but put me on the bungie then thats a different story

some of them hit 100mph during a drift, might wanna check out D1 japan for the decent drift guys but still it doesnt interest me either.

got boring very quickly and in my experience most of the people into the drift culture are totally arrogant w*nkers "ooh front wheel drive, oh no, I cant talk to you" Forgetting the fact most of their cars are actually old heaps of sh*t that they'd struggle to sell on ebay.
