Ghost said it best, ill just add the view of a Policeman.
Me personally im tryin to educate the people in my department on the differences between street racers and drifters. Its going to be a long process but im trying.
See you have to remeber, when drag racing started out, it was *dangerous* and it still is! What we do is the same! It will still be dangerous 50 yrs from now. People who dont do it will never know the connection. It will always be labeled. Yeah theres guys trying it out there on the street (I am guilty of this too) But thats how it will always be. I mean just cause drifting is new, it doesnt mean theres nobody left drag racing. This is a inevitable thing. People will do what they want regardless of the law... trust me on this. Its just human nature. I mean theres nothing you can do to change people. The only thing you can do, is not be a jacka$$ and make our image worse.
Drifting is going the wrong way..... how do you make it go somewhere else? Its not a steering wheel you can turn. Drifting is a person's connection with their car, for some people its enuff to just drive. Us its the feeling of making the car a part of us. Drifting isnt going to blink out of existence because "its going the wrong way" Its something people like doing, and they will continue to do so no matter what the law or people say.
