I say its more like a ballet on wheels. And it takes wicked skill to master it. SO yeah, i say sport. Its hard enough when your the only car, but when others get on there, and your drifting around each other... and competeing at that! SO really if theres comp, then i say SPORT!

I love when they cover that racing on Speed. World of outlaws ROCKS!!! BTW silver90, if it requires skill, is fast, dangerous, and has the possibility of crashes, fire, lots of smoke and cars, it has to be fun therefore it's a sport.

What car do you drive?

Why don't you come hit the Drift Event at Shanonville on the 20th of Aug. with us and show us what you got and then tell me it's not a sport.
