TBH I cant watch drift DVDs for long and im a BIG drift fan, i dont think ive ever watched a whole one without falling asleep, tho i may have Narcolepsy

BUT watching it (ie competitions, not dicking about) in reality I totally love it, BUT thats because i understand (the rather complex) rules, and as 90% of folk dont, I can see why people would get bored as you wont know whats going on.

The MAIN thing I like about drifting is its about skill rather than the equipment you got, a bit like rallying is, maybe even more so.
Unlike F1 etc etc where unless you got the best stuff you got no chance, drifting is about whos the best driver and whos got the most bottle, a shit car with a mint driver can win, and the best car in the world wouldnt even get your average driver past qualifying even in a novice comp.

But there no denying its all about the taking part, everyone I ever see whos experienced as a passenger or a driver "proper" drifting (not carpark or mini roundabout billies doing a bit of power oversteer) finds it a damn sight more fun than pretty much everything else you can do in a car.
Esp when it comes down to twin drifting etc, which is a stupid adrenaline rush. Its mega enough racing or trackdays when its door to door, but just imagine that sideways at 100mph+
