Just curious which do people care for more,

Do more people like d1 or FD and why?

I, myself see drifting as dang, i can't do that ish.

But seems to be big arguments about which is better, is there really a difference?

I don't see a difference between them. Scoring and running in pairs is a feature of both are they not?

They say you are either a drifter or a drag racer.:lol:

I watch more D1 so I suppose that is the one that does it for me. The drivers are good and it still has a slightly "enthusasts" feel to it. I personally feel that FD is getting too commercial with big players and flashier cars.;)

I'm a drag racer and sprinter. Racing, as far as I am concerned, is trying to get along or around a course in the quickest possible time. Drifting, therefore, is more of a spectacle than a sport. Pretty to watch but of no real consequence and done by people who can't drive fast :)

Duck for cover......

A fight between the drag racers and the drifters, this would be a good one to settle on a track (one with lots of bends)! :lol:

I tend to watch more D1 that FD so I guess my vote is for D1.

As long as the race does not turn into a Fast and the Furious Tokyo Drift, it should be fine.

That's called a sprint :)

No way to settle on the track as sports are so different. D1 is for show and drag is for go :)

I kind of wish that drift events were more of a race around a track rather than some turns and get points.

It should be winner take all, like Gran Turismo or something like that.

If it was a race, there would be no drifting!

Gran Turismo isn't exactly true to life :)

Or a Triathlon, drag then track then drift with the points totted up for each.;)

'Ten of the Best' is like this, but without the silly drifting :)

Drag
Top Speed
Sprint

Car with the highest aggregate points wins. Hence my build :)
