It's true... Japan's starting to go full throttle on bringing the drift scene to America. I just saw the new Subaru WRX commercial on TV. It goes back in forth between the WRX Rally Car and a guy on a bike with subaru on his shirt. Then it show a white WRX rally drifting it up in slow-mo. Started the drift revolution has.

well its true driftin is catchin in the US, i mean there r more and more competitions happening around the US, but theat scooby commerical is jsut 4 the new WRX STi and the guy on the bike is Lance Armstrong, u might know him cuz hes won basically every bike race in the world, and that drifting is on dirt, which would b called rally driving since its a rally car, correct me if im wrong

vinkento · Jun 29, 2003

Well yes, I did point that out in my first post.
