Well no normal crowd member is going to be gawking at funk, he doesnt make huge plumes of smoke with an SR powerplant, he dsoent have totally redicilous body modifications and flawless paint...

Last of all hes not in front of the "unknown" crowd.. Doing tampa bay and FL events just shows the sport to locals and people who already drift, it hardly spreads falken's name.

Sorry to hate funk, but I'm just showing why big business has to hate, its just not a good investment to give tires to you in their eyes.
