Sigh. Had to happen sooner or later...Don't think I'll ever like it, just doesn't seem right. Rednecks + drifting = fuck.......

Just saying though, it does seem weird for an actual old school muscle car to be doing anything besides drag racing, but drifting? Sponsored by a japanese company? Geez whatever floats your boat, but I highly doubt thats a asian person piloting it. I'll give it more respect if it actually ever wins anything.
*edit, after looking at the article is seems a white guy is driving and the people built it call themselves Blacktop Rodeo. Congrats on fitting the stereotype. Don't worry folks, I'll read this rest of it to actually pull out something positive. **edit. K after further reading it, props for actually trying. But 700hp? Come on now, wtf. Its drifting, not the fucking Bonneville Flats. Whatever, not my car, not my money. Good luck to them even though Rhys and other Formula D veterans won't even let them smell the top 3. Ey, D1 needs to come back to America some more....

700 hp out of a 468... Bout as hard as getting 320 out of a SR20. The 468 that they have is most likely a crate motor. GM never built a 468, and I doubt they bored out a 454. Nice F-body hoosier. What year is that? I don't have any pictures of my camaro, its tucked away in storage. Here is a picture of My 72', Looks better with my surfboard on it.   . And no I'm not going to paint it. In a few months its gonna get locked up with my 68' until I'm done with school so I can built it right.

Re: Falkens newest drifter.
sounds like one mean mofo.
and the vid says they only have 550 to 575 down to the ground. And there are high hp vehicles in drifting. I think nomuken(if i remember correctly) had an 800+ hp skyline he drifted in d1. The year the ae86 took the d1 champion for the year.

Re: Falkens newest drifter.
That has to be one hell of a suspesion on there too. That camaro, in stock form has the same susp. and chassis as my car. It's a very tall set up, really meant for keep the rear wheels firmly planted, and the car going straight. I give them props.

Re: Falkens newest drifter.
i think there are a few ackward cars in FD...budda drifts camino being one of them...thats redneck'ed (if you've seen the car you know what im talking about) i also find the Camaro FD car pretty hot...but i also think that FD is also becoming more about powersliding than skill (not saying they dont have it, just saying they dont use it as much as D1 drivers)

Re: Falkens newest drifter.
Id like to see the american cars try and do it on the touge...they do look like they powerslide more than drift...
I dont really care much for formula d at all...except benson and nadine are pretty cool I met them at events... I guess I am just a jdm whore I'd like to see the fd drivers compete on the really tight technical tracks (no not the tomei lsd =) ) of japan and see how they do...
