I agree with alot of the positive post on this thread!
Ben give me full mod powers so I can clean up all the garbage on our forum to make it a bit more serious to the new people!
And another thing... It's hard to not have shit talking! We have so much negativity in south fla! My first dict event I went to was at the fairgrounds in 06 and all the shit talking I heard was coming from the microphone! Emil and abe were sitting with me that day and heard how upset I was at the announcer! Very un-professional. And even though I felt like I was in the twilight zone when I was at desoto back in dec I still didn't hear any shit talkin from anyone but the announcers in the booth! Even every spectator and driver that attended that night had nothing but positive things come out of their mouths! So when we had the mic over to someone we really need to make sure we know who and how that person or persons are gonna act!

lmao this gives me the evil idea of going to spectate where no one knows who you are and sitting in the stands and talking smack about FastntheFurious and how they are jokers out there... wait for a free car to go drive, and tear the course up with it.
would never actually do it, but man would it be funny to see them drop jaws at you killin it afterall.
That's really dumb.
this thread just got really funny.
True story.
the funniest part was that emil actually handed the kid his keys and started to walk towards his car the kid gave emil his keys back and walked away...

Never gotten to that point i mean ive only done it once but i would probably back pedal out of it once i saw he was actually going to attempt it.
Just trying to get a laugh out of the situation thats all i mean put yourself in that scenario and its pretty funny... Or im just easily amused lol

...are you serious... the #1 legit car thief's of South Florida compared "Team Orange"... oh wait, you mean how they both like to drive sideways.
this has been done and i dont think it would help by having more news coverage. maybe more advertisements would help (think monster jam and more digital flyers in other forums)
why is the "new thing" to say all of a sudden, i have heard this same statement from so many different people. this is starting to get annoying.... yet i am waiting to see the spec actually grab them and drift/crash, how ever funny that will turn out to be.
yes... x2... end thread... but this comes in to my "yellow light theory"
The Yellow Light Theory = What should be done compared to what is done in reality...
"At a yellow light you are supposed to slow down for the red light when in reality you speed up to avoid the red light" -RichiePresto
Uneducated "drifter/dragger/racers/Fans" will always control the the success or demise of the sport(drag racing for example, and dont bother wasting a keystroke to compare the sports). The negative feedback from the fans comes from the negative feedback from the originating scene. I left after the shady aftermath just to comeback to see south Florida's BEST DRIVERS, in my opinion, end up in either the same or lower position from when i left. If the fan support was there(fans spreading the word of mouth of how great one was) then these drivers would be the ones who would be the ones who plug the spotlight onto SFL by doing what i think every world famous driver has done, dominate other drivers in others hometown(cali in example). This sport is turning into a revolving door because many people dont learn from our mistakes in history(http://www.complex.com/blogs/2008/10/21/historys-greatest-failed-sports-leagues/). if you were really serious about events.. look at the biggest events in every sport in WHEN it was in its time... and WHO made it happen... and HOW they did it.
Ed McMahon and Wrestling
Don King and Boxing
Irvin Feld and Ringling Bros & Monster Jam
Daijiro Inada and D1 & Option2
(your name here) and SFL Drifting
WHO is going to put there neck on the line and set the record straight for SFL? WHO is going to organize this and educate the fans? WHO is going to recognize the best driver to give him support to dominate world wide?
.... you are

Please do not start rumors.. I know the side run guys buy parts from me and they are a legit group.

Not trolling but with that statement are you saying that you rather watch Nascar than come out to an event if it's not D1 or that most people feel that all events here are amateurish skid pads?
Because if it's the first thing that I understood, then that explains why there's animosity between "veterans" and "noobs".
Why the hell am I going to cheer for you or admit you have any skill if you aren't willing to give me pointers and encourage me to get better?
I'm just saying.
