The guy driving the RX8 is just showing off his drifting skills. It would be much better if he were seriously driving the car FAST
Have you been to Zoom Zoom Island? It's Mazda's marketing area with some fun stuff on it. Like a hot lap of Laguna Sega in an RX8, and a drifting game. It's not earth-shattering, but it is interesting to play with for a while...

Sadly, though, to the 99% of people that have never experienced FAST, it would look slow...Originally Posted by MadMerv
Kind of like the photographer getting a more "exciting" photo if the driver has gotten a little loose. Of course, we really like those spins!!!
Photos of a skilled driver doing it properly often doesn't come across with the same "excitement"....well, at least to someone that doesn't know enough to appreciate it.

Yup... I'm afraid my car is going to look pretty darned slow this year unless I do some silly runs... But then Mr. Lee will frown at me...
I'll do my best to take nothing but the most boring photos of you this year TC - unless, of course, I'm able to catch you at just the right time!

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming...'Wow! What a ride!'
