              I just hope it dosnt turn into a FAD!! Sad to say, but I agree that alot of people will get into it for the wrong reasons. And alot of people will make the real drifters look bad by doing dumb things. I really hope nobody gets hurt. The learning curve for drifting is pretty high, so people will quickly find out if this is something they really want to do (after totalling their car, or hitting someone). Drifting on the streets is a bad thing but its probably going to happen anyway. Just like street racing ... people dont use their common sense.

                drifting for wrong reasons.

                true.
                drifting should only be done in a controlled area. people with lil or no drifting expeirence should go to some of the drift events they will most likely have a beginner area they had one at the drift showoff even teaching you how to drift.
                so be safe dont crash. . . . . .


                /and try to keep up\

                  yes, though I strongly agree with controlled tracks and all, but were any of the tracks in initial D controlled. As for fast and the furious, yes that made everything lame, but sometimes its an advantage to show all those who try to race you, who the real master is (ex: a teen in an integra tried showing off to my dad, who was in an 89 civic, so they raced and my dad soked him..haha). Those who chose to race are responsible for their own lives and others as well. Be safe!

                    Drifting

                    I think people want to get into drifting b/c of the way it is presented in magazines and in videos. Most magazines covering drifting seem to be encouraging it. The problem is, in most parts of the country there are no legal places to drift. So drifters are going to take to the streets.

                    In the end, after the popularity comes and goes there will only be those who really want to be involved. Most of the import street racers I know are big nerds and thats cool 'cause (sadly!) I fit in. Pretty much drifting will be the same.

                    The biggest group of people I have ever had a conversation about imports with was at a honors/medical luncheon.

                    TF&TF did change things for the worse. b4 that movie, I would be like oh thats Rturos turbo del sol, oh thats Franks Type R, oh thats Diegos mx6, oh thats that dudes Supra TT. But then the whole freakin neighborhood was completely riced out. It didn't bother me, but it was wierd. Even after all of that the people that took this stuff to the next level were always the big nerds like myself. We simply made it our life and we lived that life to the fullest.

                        i think people should think about drifting and the many things it'll do to you and your car...alot of people only want to get into it now cause it's the "in thing" or "it's cool"....they goin to be goin all over drifting on the streets causing accidents then it's goin to be blamed on drifting and all the old school drifters are goin to be busted, hunted down , not even safe to cross the street kine...all because some people think that it'll make them cool...but hopefully when they do try they'll stay on the tracks at leats untill they learn how to control it...but i figure some of the guys that think its goin to make them cool will crash their cars, end up having to pay alot to get it fixed then relieze that they really don't want to be drifters....if you wanna be a drifter because you think the sport is fun and you understand the consiquences (sp?) and your not doin it for attention and not doin it cause you think it'll make you cool then all the power to you....
