Good, maybe you can explain drifting to me.
But seriously, Just ask if you really have a question.
I don't see a Porsche GT2 in this year's lineup like last year.
i think he's driving a different car now
Scion I believe
Tyler McQuarry drove the Porsche (fantastic driver btw) for Hankook Tires.
not sure what he moved too EDIT: it's a 350z for faulkin tires
the rwd converted TC is driven by Tanner Foust (also the host of a speed channel show about cars, forgot the name).... he drove the 350z before for Rockstar... he's done alot of shit recently though, i think xgames not too long ago, etc.
Yes, i actually kinda keep up with what's going on... not alot, but the jist cause it's fun to spectate (in real life, you notice they are driving alot faster than what appears on Camera)
and for the driving aspect, it's just a different feel... going on a racetrack, and just getting the fastes time has a cool feel.... but do the same track, sliding through every turn, sharp body angles relative to the turn, is wickedly awesome feel... way different than going for the fastest time. It's basicially being out of control, yet being absolutely incontrol. But unlike Nascar, this, formula racing, rallye, Touge, etc, require alot of driver skill to do to well.
BTW how you win in drift:
following good race lines
how angled you get the car
tire smoke
how close you can also get to the wall
ad how you can maintain the control
all play a factor in judging
also, when they do the 2 car vs.... its also keeping up with the first car, and being able to execute each drift through turns better.
