definently saved that date thanks alot

[captainNEO]

footage was decent.
announcers sucked.
names were butchered.
only ONE run from each run was shown. WTF?

[DriftAE88]

tell me about it I was watching the first round all siked up and then the anouncers sounded like they weren't into it except for the southern guy and then I was lookin forward to the second round istead they go to the next match up. plus why was it half hour instead of a full hour like Formula D

[Hubert Young]

The coverage was really bad except the nice in-car shots. Announcers really had no experience in commenting the runs.

This is another example of what would be detrimental to the sport of drifting because viewers had no idea what is going on except seeing cars going sideways.

Do it well if you are going to put drifting on TV. Formula D on ESPN really set the bar in drifting coverage. Use that as a model and improve from there.
