Now feel free to add your much anticipated .02...

NHRA= 1953
NASCAR= 1948
D1 Gran Prix First USA event= 2003
SCCA First Drift Event= 2004
Drifitngs first "national" series= Yet to happen.

I think Nascar and NHRA have 50 years on DRIFTING..... The fact that GM and Chrysler have already jumped on the bandwagon in the first 2 years of a new sport is jaw-dropping!

Check back here in 50 years, and see where Drifting has gone.

There is your "much Anticipated" .02
