that's what the lil waver is that you sign to get in would cover

:rotfl:!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAHAHAHA... Noooo they can't be going SLOWER then drag cars!!! Because they are "keeping their revs up"
Justinowned!!
Not to mention these people win by literally .000001 of a second somtimes, which is alot better then winning by a judge appointed point :rollseye: Drifting is the gayest thing to ever happen to motorsports, next week we are all going to be watching people do rev offs where the judges vote on who the best revver was, and it be considered racing

Who do you think drives those 1000 hp dragsters? There usually not little boys. Putting supervised drag racing and drifting in the same catagory is almost as stupid as saying weed and crack are the same thing, oh, wait...

Anything that is decided by a group of judges is not a racing, they might as well say "Burn out contests" is racing too, because the crowd decides who wins that one...
