Race Drift

Nascar........
Circle is so interesting
Look look They're making a left turn

This is just a fad that has nothing to do with racing. Racing is getting to the finish line as fast as possible. These guys are just sliding around the track sideways smoking tires.

About as interesting as ice skating....they are awarded points on style too.....LOL

omg its all bout getting to the finish line who the fuk cares no cares about speed anymore nascar is the most boringest crap ever thought of. drifting and ice skating? what r u some kind of fuked up white trash motherfuker tht u cant be mor of a redneck hick. fuk u u queef

The largest growing sport in America....75 million viewers every Sunday for 36 races not including All-Star Race. Obvioulsy you are not informed about Nascar, there are two road courses on the circuit (which has both left and right turns.....so why do you think Indy, Formula and other leagues are losing their best drivers to Nascar??? Could it be that people are tired of seeing these little go cart races and see some real racing where car setup, tires, fuel mileage and a demanding schedule determines that these are the best drivers in the world???

Even before you start your start your retaliation on my post...remember, Tony Stewart was the 97' IRL champion, 2002 Winston Cup, 2005 Nextel Cup and now the newly crowned 2006 IROC champion.

I was a skeptic too till I went to my first nascar race.....even the cookie cutter 1.5 mile ovals put the Indy 500 to shame....And yes, I went to the 83rd and 84th Running of the 500.

75 million fans can't be wrong!!!!

Nascar is almost as boring as watching golf!

nice copy paste

did u ever seen initial d b4 u call that good they crashed at the end the video is actually 1minutes 21sec

Youre damn right

if done right with the right car, then a driver would actually accelerate way faster out of a turn

the point of this races is not speed, it's drifting (show off of amazing control skills)

Save the smoking tires for the celebration burnouts after a real race...

is he the one with the viper?

the "artform" is called Drifting.. u can do it with anything that moves.. on the ground that is :P

I actually did it driving a 7 ton ambulance once. Not a long sustained drift, but there was a noticeable slide.

in paris you mean!!!

You're ignorant

This sort of thing was very common forty years ago, before the development of modern suspension. Sideways is great to watch but is not the quickest way around a corner.

I think skill beats speed anyday. Mind you skill at speed is best

Language is Japanese - as per name on the in-car cam.

its jap !!! the leading car is a GTR skyline... this movie aint that new... i saw it about 5 months ago...

LOL Specifically a Skyline ENR34 GTT and the follow-up one is the Silvia 200SX S15 Spec-R...these D1 racers are amazing huh?

"D1 racers are amazing!" I agree.
Anyone ever tried to modified old American muscules and race them in D1?

Imagine a 900hps Detroit muscle (say, an up tuned Chvy SS) vs GTR r34 in a drift racing!!

mopar did it with a viper str10

To my knowledge, D1 hasn’t used any muscle cars to drift with, partly cos it’s got too much of a low end torque and the heavy front end of the car causes a very bias weight distribution, thus it’s better for drag racing. Yet I think it’d be cool to see one tuned for D1 drifting…but that’s gonna be a lotta work to be done. Moreover, it's a rare case for D1s to tune BNR34s to drift (R34 GTRs) as it's expensive to buy one in comparison to GTTs (aka GTS-t for earlier models) and an FR is preferable.

Tack! FR is so far the best for drifting, the base car and all the mods are not so expensive, but with great performance.

I just like to see some expensive non-nippon cars in D1. Let's hope some crazy rich man will do it.

Drifting Muscle, yeah, that'd be seriously interesting to see! It'd be dope if one day you do dat as a first-mover... I'll bring my car to join ya =P
