boxing is to auto-x as pro-wrestling is to drifting
boxing is skill, is scored, and is more of a modest sport. thats what auto-x is
pro-wrestling is not scored, its for show, and is judged mainly by the audience. same with drifting.
while it may intimidate, or make other drivers a little offset by the attitude, it does get the crowd involved, and even though i do this to become a better driver, i always want to please the crowd. its more than a perfect line, correct angle...its also showmanship, smoke shows, graphics, engine sounds, etc. once u get good, then u can start having a blast with it...thats what bill does, what i try to do, and what some of the others do.
some of the best pro-drifters are the cockiest most showoff asses around...but they're good enough to act that way. you dont get remembered by acting modest.
