This looks like such a blast without all the dumb bullshit/restrictions. Fun, fun, fun.

D1/formula d, suck a fat one. That was a request, not a declarative statement.

Saw that vid and hated it.

Too much idiotic foolishness, Not enough sly coolness. Also too many crashes. Reminds me of amateur high-school skate vids. 1 or 2 big tricks then kids running around do stupid **** because there "rebels"

call me conservative.

No bro.

I'm 16 and saw tokyo drift and initial d and know NOTHING at all about d1/formula d drivers.....

Who is Matt Powers?

I saw sum guy that looked like Ross Petty but it probably wasn't.

To be real, yes, we need shitty cars, bad tracks and super dangerous conditions. Quit being a ******* *****. That was awesome.

FD is awesome. Just Deal with it.



Besides the driving in fd is redic now, wall taps are the norm and top 32 tandem rules.

so many people are missing the point of drifting, shut and slide. get out there and have some fun, let the haters hate. Once you turn it into numbers and judges its just figure skating with cars

Off topic as **** but i still can't believe maxxis makes car tires.

When did that happen anyway?

I thought they made only bike tires because i that's all i used to run.......


Edit: acting stupid (in an environment you are able to without going to jail) is awesome. Beating up cars not giving a **** is awesome too.

Sorry if anyone tries to take what i say as absolute word 100 percent literal **** me in the *** whateverland.

Just watch the vid. That's why i posted it. to be watched.

pretty sure everyone in fd has a lot of fun.

at some point you have to pay he bills, im sure if given the chance youd turn down a title sponsor to "keep it real".

get serious.

I guess they felt the bmx market was crashing like it does every 10 years or so and stepped up to job security..... (maxxis)

CJ, i wouldn't turn it down.

You ARE taking this out of context.

Stuntin' is a habit.

We had more fun in the 04-06 time frame, than most ever will, when drifting was "blowing up", and I'll guarantee you guys don't know enough to say who "gets it" or doesn't.

I was there.

And I'm still here, "getting it".

Dave these youngins dont know who you are.....

What youve done...


what youve built...



what youve seen...




they know not the endeavors of a man who honed his craft, his heart and his loyalty to a fine, razor sharp EDGE.

Really? I like how "its fun, but I gotta get paid to do it", thing is cool now.

That would be fun to drift in, but I'd hate to help clean it up. Those cars were pretty nice, and they purposely crash them; well, some of them.

Cool vid, my gf showed it to me last weekend and I had a fun time watching it. Kinda like a skate video but with cars.

Anyways drifting/messing around no matter how you do it is fun, whether you get paid for it or not. I enjoy FD and WDS. My opinion.
