Drifting. in my opinion the best way to show your skills in driving, controling the car in a situation that would mostly kill you.

All types of situations in driving can kill you.
In my opinion it is only one of the ways you can show off talent, it is just like some other guys here who talk about the 1/4 mile drag like it is the deciding factor in cars and drivers. It is not. It is the total understanding and skill of getting the car to do the things you need it to do, even if it wasn't made for it. This includes ALL types of racing, and IMHO, the Nurburging track is best way to show your skills in driving. This track will test you in all areas of driving.

x2. Those guys in WRC are completely insane. The only ones crazier than the ones behind the wheel are the ones in the track for the "last possible second" photo op :O

the japanese call it drifting, in the 70s we called it driving...easier with rear wheel drive than front wheel, all you have to do is learn to keep it between the ditches.

+1. much harder to turn a truck sideways with a full size cab and am 8' bed on a 1 1/2 lane road and not go off :rock

As a testament to the difficulty of rallying, take Ken Block.
He has impressed people all over the world with his Gymkana stunt driving/drifitng videos, and yet check out his record (including number of crashes) in WRC.

This is what I think of drifting as it is defined today.

If you're going less than 90mph when you do it, then you might as well just drive around a front wheel drive car with the rear wheels locked up.

Drifting -1
Does it take skill, sure. Does it even come close to Ralley, F1 or Touring cars? Nope!

I probably reacted a bit harshly.

Drifting +1, If my nitro car hadn't of been stolen I was planning on getting an rc drift car for my birthday to start out. :rock

you mean something like this? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H8Zbv1Bx2uo (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H8Zbv1Bx2uo)
they went way out in designing this track, it's cool i have to say, just not my Bag i fly Planes.

Nitrorcx has some good drifting video's, if you like techno of course, I actually bought myself a AR Drone instead of a new nitro buggy, but it had a defective shaft so I have to get it replaced. Sure is a hell of a fun way to see the neighborhood! Plus I've seen mods where you can mod it with your DX6i and fly it with that and still have video from your phone or ipod, I'm thinking about possible future mods :x

sorry i havnt replyed on this subject internet was out. it is my opinion that this is the best motor sport around because its not about beating your opponent to the finish line, its about mirroring your opponent moves and staying as close as possible to him its also about the beauty of it. rally racing is cool as a matter of fact drifting takes somethings from rally racing, but deep down its not about beating your opponent to the finish line. thats one of the reasons i didnt like the movie FnF tokyo drift, because they made it out like that in the race scenes.
heres a video of D1 Gran Prix racing. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ADqxPsSPXk (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ADqxPsSPXk)
