anyway thnks matt for the props. i have to say that GB, MAtt, Taylor were all good but thats to be expected from NOANTS.
funk really stood out. and the turbo miata was hot along with Geoffre in his one wheeled Hachi!! Boxmod in the one wheeled single cam 240 was good to. definitaly can't wait to do it again!!!

Dont for get the newest catagories!

Biggest asshole Award!

Most useless car Award!

Most defensive Yuppie Award!

Biggest show of insecurity Award! (AKA the "look at me! Im rich!" Award)

And the winner of all these catagories is . . . .(Drum role please!)


NOBLE DRIFT!


We would like to thank the owner of NOBLE DRIFT for coming out and making an ass of himself and showing all of us that being rich and owning a nice car doesnt mean that you know what your doing! Also, we would like thank NoAnts drift team for proving that fact even further by kicking ass with mostly stock cars (especialy Bill!)

Stupid Yuppies can't ride Harleys, Stupid yuppies can't drive thier Ferraris and Vipers, and certainly these same stupid yuppies cant drift!

I dont care if the driver of that car wasnt there and that he could "whip everones ass" (A direct quote from the owner). if the driver isnt there, dont bring the otherwise uselss car and steal the spotlight of the good drivers there. That photo shoot should have had NoAnts on it, not the most useless car in the center! A show of money doesnt prove anything, and neither does a shitty attitude towards the people in attendance. Besides, if the driver is really in D1 as the owner says, then they shouldnt have come out because that means that they are professional (HAAA!!!) and shouldnt have come to an amateur drift practise session and waste everyones time.

I conclude by saying that people with that kind of attitude dont belong in this sport. I come to the assumtion that people in this sport follow three atruibutes on gauging others, and they are

Attutude
Ability
Automobile

Attitude being the most important, and dead even with ability when it comes to noble drift, that is, dead last.

Sorry for the bitch session, just had to get it off my chest!

I agree. the M12 is a great car, but

A: Driving it like a RWD gives poor results
B: its a mid rear car, and wasnt made for this kinda thing, its more of a circut racer...

See this:

P.S. I can assure you the owner is no yuppie. I don't know about his attitude... it's hard not to be defensive with uninformed people like you spouting off with their poor attitudes all day. And "stealing the spotlight"... WTF, give me a break. Go cry somewhere else because that's not what this event was anyway. It was a fun/practice event, which is exactly what NOBLE Drift needed.

I can vouche for the owners shitty attitude. I talked to him a couple time and the way he talked to some of the people, he was real prick.

One guy asked politely to sit in the passenger seat and he said, "No man, that's a bitch seat"...then proceeded to do just that, let some pre-teen girl who knew nothing about the car sit in and get pictures of her with the steering wheel in her hands. Then eventually let Jay drive it.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not crying, I just thought the guy was an ass, but I expected that.

All I can say is from what i expierenced out there. He was not a nice person, he was also trying desperatly to show off something that didnt even belong there. I can also see the point about the steering geomatery being FUBARed but heres and idea, make the bitch understeer like mad and then initiate some 4 wheel drift. even so, that track wouldnt work for that.

Im not here to cry, i honestly dont care. I respect those of you who risked life and limb trying to drift that car. I see the event being for ametuers and people who wish to practice without fear of police. It seems to me that the owner of Noble Drift should go rent Sebring for a day or two and practice there, thats what they NEED. An autoX track isnt that car's home at all. It needs a real track, and why the owner has to come out to an event like this without the proper drivers and be an ass to anyone who states that the car isnt doing well (like ME) is beyond my comprehension. I dont care for Rich assholes who have nothing good to give to the scene unless the rich asshole wants to give money to the talented people, like sponser NoAnts for gods sake. Dont waste everyones time. Of course, it was entertaining making fun of that car spinning out constantly, so it wasnt all a bad time!

Next time, come out with a good attitude and the proper drivers and prove us non-believers wrong. (The attutude is the most important.)

bill: it was a grip run on a dry road, out here the local twisties.. i came in too hot and late breaked to slow myself down, but i was already in the turn and the car started to oversteer.. i figured i could work with it, and started to countersteer just as the car gained traction again...right into the guardrail.


silviaivlis:

listen man, i didnt think jt was a dick at all, and i know the rest of the team is full of qualified drivers..

you do know that there we only filled 31 slots, right? not a huge waste of time considering we all got plenty of runs compared to how it would have been if the event sold out.

rich assholes with nothing to give? man i dont know about you, but those were the prettiest damn donuts ive ever seen i got to touch an m12, ill hold off on a lap or two to see one in action. and about him getting defensive of the car (before he drove it i mean).. tell me you wouldnt be worried of some jackass getting inside YOUR supercar and breaking something? or even just getting greasy fingerprints and muddy footprints all over the interior. just be a little more understanding..

and youre talking about attitude? man, you only talked to these people for a few minutes at a time, and you come off calling everyone wankers? "stupid yuppies"?? if you ask me, thats exactly the attitude we dont need...

Regarding Noble Drift... I have one question... why was it called Noble Drift if it isn't a drift car?? Just curious.
