Conrats to JTP !

As I've not followed the whole thing, can someone explains why the entries where so weak ?
(I was impressed to see one of (THE ?) biggest drift champ with only ebrake entry without any weight transfert ... (I've seen a little feint from JTP tho)
But there is a reason I suppose, like the judges saying that they don't care about the entry ..?

Probably because that part of the track isn't visible to the judges besides on the big screen. The announcer said that they want to see the drivers at angle when they come into view on that straight after the first corner...since the judges don't see them before that it doesn't really matter probs

I was watching the stream all day, so glad he won. Matt's one transfer (in the round before I think) under the bridge was disgusting, snapped it so hard and fast it was awesome.

Thanks for the explanation

(I still think that's weak ... "run for the judges" instead of "run ***** out")
