Drifting has no meaning in real life. Telling someone that they can't drift is like picking on someone for not being good at video games. Gaiety

Wow, u can't tell me there's no skill involved there. And if it's a waste of tires then it's a beautiful waste of tires...unlike a lot of standing-still burnout videos i've seen.

If your gonna smoke ur tires at least make it worth while

are you retarded? it takes a lot of car control to be able to do something like that. if anyone can do that, they can probably get around a racetrack as well.

when drifting was first becoming popular, i didn't like it. people told me to watch a video of it. I did, still didn't like it. People told me to watch it live. I did, still didn't like it.

There's plenty of skill required. There's just no point to it.

You can learn how to sneak that fat chick from down the street into your house without anyone knowing. Doesn't mean I want to learn how

what? worst comeback ever. Having amazing car control != doing a fat chick.

The skill required to do something like that has to be at least 10x's more than racing in a straight line

You are going to tell me that a pro drag racer has less skill than one of these guys? This guy goes out and does the equivalent of a clown's birthday party show in a car and you are going to compare it to skilled racers. You obviously don't know what you are saying. Hell, going around a track faster than anyone else is a talent. In fact it pays quite well.

What this guy is doing is exibitionism, just like someone shitting on someone elses chest and filming it. They sell it for a profit and that is exibitionism. Scat nor drifting has any real effect on racing.

You can be an idiot consumer and keep on being told what is cool. Jump into the trend and be different just like everyone else.
