I f*cking hate Australia.

Put you on the crimson wave didn't I? Drifting is the ice dancing or rhythmic gymnastics of motorsport.

So you're saying you don't have anything worthwhile to say about motorsports, then?

[Holland]

your kidding yourself if you think the U.S. is so much better. The grass is always greener on the other side no matter where you are. And BTW, the ugly ass "tuner" cars over there are rooted from the U.S. pimp my ride thing. there is about 500 of them to every 1 classy car anywhere in the world too.

Well at least in the U.S. when a spider bites you, you don't die. When you go for a swim you don't get stung by a box jelly fish and die. You also don't go to prison for doing 5 over and held in higher contempt than a serial rapist. Have to say that's much greener.

Nobody drifts because it's the fastest way around a corner, they do it because it's fun. Try it some time.

Also, not everything is a competition. Do you think skateboarding, or BMX are stupid if nobody is trying to win, or be the best at it?

What do you have against having fun?

the public roads are not your personal playground. if the Man wants to put his thumb on your antics for safety that's his job.

there's lots of stupid ways to have fun. and they are most popular with callow youth like yourself. you may grow out if it and find smart ways to have fun; actually i predict you will.

just don't complain when people already that smart call you out.

Never been to Australia, but in my head I imagine everyone there too look like Russel Crowe.

I have this fantasy of buying an Aussie E28, turboing the fuck out of it and going for high-speed rips though the outback.

That dream is gone now.

OK, tough guy. Glad to be educated on motorsports. Tell me more about your theories on other types of performance driving.

Stalya, fuck ya!

[2761377]

but you guys get cool accents and hot blondes, you can't ask for it all...

famously, aussie chicks prefer Americans over homegrown offerings.

drifting is stupid, and people who do it on public roads suck.

the most favorable comparison is syncronized swimming, the lamest olympic sport.

bottom line- it hurts lap times.

I must say, Ive had two defects in the touring from QLD transport for exhaust / suspension, and whilst being at the side of the road (on both occasions) the bogan shitboxes cruising past the checkpoint was astounding. Just don't get it

[wakdog]

We can't even lower our car, or put wider wheels on it without getting fined, and defected. Not sure what the equivalent of a defect would be O/S but it means you can't drive your car until you revert it to stock and go through a costly inspection.

Ive been pretty lucky in regards to defects but i know tons of people that have been fucked over completely.... I got pulled over in my track e30 with one seat in it and about 20 things that would be considered defects.... Stupid cop only put down 3 major defects on the form as that was the bare minimum to make me go to court. Defended 2 of the defects and only got a $75 fine for being too low.

Yeah, I get what you're saying. The only real reason I want to get away from here is the whole 'car enthusiasts are criminals' culture coming from the mainstream media.

Youre a car dancer, nothing more. Hell 99% of the "professionals" arent even pulling a real drift, just pulling the brake and letting the back slide out.

when did religion and skin color become a different species?

That's the point.

Who the fuck cares? Their having fun, making a living out of it and most importantly, keeping it off busy streets. Pull that e-brake out of your ass.
