I say good call judges. Drifting is an art but certain drivers out there are making it a race. The sport is about showcasing complete car control, not dirty driving techniques to get ahead or screw up the guy behind you. Anytime there is contact I think everyone lost because there was some ammount of control that was lost. I agree with Mikespeed and Hubert and the rest, the skill in tandem is following, not passing. Judges are only reacting to what certain drivers are doing.

that is not what tsuisou drifting is about, if that is all you want to see then go watch D1 team drifting or BM Cup twin drifting competions.

what the F#*k do you know about tsuiso? do you have magical japan pants that tell you penis fairy tales? whatever the f#*k Pfeiffer and Yen say is what stands in FD. If Kazu disagreed with the rule, he should have spoken up during the drivers' meeting before breaking it in competition.

Kazu's pass was not "clean." it was not "D1 style." it was pure, sopping wet vagina. he probably didn't even intend to pass... he just f#*ked up and couldn't go wide enough.

taking a shallow line isn't honorable and it doesn't show any more skill than the one taking an outside line.

a shallow line = less distance travelled.

that's like some f#*ktard signing up for a cross-country race and starting in Texas. yeah, he'll make it to California first, but does he deserve a trophy for covering half the distance faster than anyone covered the entire distance?

No, he deserves a douche nozzle hat, and so do you kids.

Jriftking, do you drift the short-bus to school? what the hell is raw about drift racing? Go jerk off to Tokyo Drift. Is Formula 1 raw? What about D1? Keeping your precious "rawness" is impossible in a nationally televised motorsport, with the exception of WRC. The fact that WRC is simply a point-A to point-B race without any complicated rules regarding line or passing does allow it to stay rather raw, but this sort of thing is impossible in drifting.

It comes down to the simple fact that drifting is f#*king slow. you want to go faster? decrease angle or travel a shorter distance. that makes for a pretty weak drift race.

if you want raw drift racing, go watch or drive in Driftfest. It still maintains those pass-happy rules of drift racing, and it's traveling across the country.

Driftin180sx, no beef with you... but the line illustrated by the judges encouraged a wide entry, and they said they'd dock points for clipping that inside corner. This isn't a race, as the rest of my post hopefully makes clear.

now, if you kids still want the objective of "drift racing" to be a "big f#*k you" to the guy you're following, just think about how much more humiliating it is to have a guy mimic your line while making it better.

Like, which is more humiliating:

a) This guy f#*ks a girl that's hotter than your girlfriend.

b) This guy f#*ks your girlfriend and does it better than you.

Of course, passing isn't quite like screwing a hot girl.... in this case it's more like screwing the drunk chick at a party 'cause she's easy. there's no sport in it, it's just cheap.

okay, i'm done. behold my festival of hate.

also, the current Formula D rules still allow passing, but only by taking advantage of the leader's poor line. If the leader goes wide, the chaser can get a nose in or pass, depending on how much room there is. If you see that happen, you can be sure the chaser is genuinely driving better than the leader.

...and so ends THE ADDENDUM OF HATE.

when did drifting ever turned into drift racing? i think overtaking a car should have at least more priority ONLY to point out the fact that the leader phucked up.
