to update my post, supposedly Ueo switched to a Turbo S15 a while ago pushing 400+ WHP and struggled that season in D1 (2007 i believe). he then joined another team and i believe he still pilots an s15. So, sad to say but......America ruined D1.
its funny, most of these cars now (beside Ueo i believe) have over 350ps. D1 GP has changed for the worst. Back then u rarely saw a car over 600ps, now, seems like the avg car is pushing well over 700ps lol. Just a bunch of power drifters. I miss the days of clutch kicking, perfectly timed downshifts, feint corner entries, and lound ass twin cam machines roaring. all good things must come to an end i guess.
wow... are you a mind reader? cause i swear i was typing out the same exact comment you wrote when i look down and saw what you wrote... well said friend, well said.
i wouldnt even consider it drifting anymore, more along the lines of "POWER SLIDEING"
Simply stepping on the throttle to increase your angle while counter-steering ISNT DRIFTING!
would take so much skill to drift at those speed with such little power. they have to have to put the foot to the floor the whole way otherwise they straighten out.
anyone else looking forward to the new FT-86?

Being a 86 owner sucks, I have no excuse to be late for work ever and I always arrive 10 min. before all my friends do if we go out.

I can blindfold you and have a Japanese and American/European car revving and you'd still be able to tell which is the Japanese car.
