I think the 370Z's should have the Titan V8 in it anyways. I miss 385lbft of torque

Like someone mentioned earlier about gymnastics. It is very skillful but it bring anothernelemnt to be judged : STYLE racing simply does not have it. The fastest guy wins is boring. Being wble to express your style with a 500+ hp car sliding sideways is comepletly different. I think its a sport, just like gymnastocs is a sport. How can you speak on the odds of what appeals to the fwnbase whn you yourself arent even a fan??

I don't know if any of you guys realize this... but there are people that play video games professionally. I'm pretty sure there is a pro gaming league.
If THAT can be a "sport," drifting certainly can be. It takes tremendous skill to drive cars like that... The definition of the word "Sport" (Noun) an athletic activity requiring skill or physical prowess and often of a competitive nature, as racing, baseball, tennis, golf, bowling, wrestling, boxing, hunting, fishing, etc. I'd say by definition... Drifting is a sport. /thead |

The definition of what does and what does not constitute a "sport" varies from person to person. Whether it's sports or it's entertainment, people enjoy watching it. There is no denying that.

Since I don't know anything about Drifting, please help me out. What I got from reading the posts is that it is not a race. They are sliding around and getting judged on style. Is that right?
