1 million dollars in your pocket and you would use it on participating a top tier drifting competition with no experience at all.... great investment.

lol, please stop talking.

Exactly. It would be fun as shit. You'd have a blast, you could talk to the doriftu girls, etc.

Yea but then you would complain when someone says your driving skills suck? Come on. Some of you would suck Ken Block's dick if you had the chance.

If you could buy your way into doing what you like to do, you're saying you wouldn't do it?

If I had a million bucks in my pocket and I could use it to buy my way into D1GP Japan, I would surely do it. I'm sure I might not make it past qualifying, but who cares.

If you really think everyone else isn't "buying" there way in you are mistaken. As a driver you need some major financial backing early in your career in order to even get noticed by anybody who would pay you to drive for them.

There aren't many who get noticed at the lower levels of karting and get asked to move into a pro series with a paid ride. In this country you'll see a lot of talented guys never make it anywhere near a paid ride because when they were 15-18 they didn't have the family money to continue on before being noticed by a team owner or team principal. The continuance would probably include something on the order of 2-3 seasons in formula atlantic coming out of the "family" pocket.

To a large extent racing and more so making a large income in racing is still a sport for the rich and famous. It's very very hard to make it to the upper levels of motorsport without having money to keep you in the upper intermediate series to get noticed...if your good enough.

Of course with every rule there are exceptions...Kimi Raikkonen for instance...

Its just everyone else in the world has to be asked to drive for a team in WRC based on experience and being the best. Ken Block just throws money at it. He bought his way in. Its like squid inventing a team to race in motogp just so he can race with the top players. Its fake and he doesn't belong there.

Sick driving :pimp:
