I wish they still showed BTCC on speed. European roadracing is so much more intense and agressive than here. Neal and Plato are both dirty drivers too. Makes it alot more interesting though. Drifting... no, but even if it is dirty and unfair, slamming doors in peoples faces, sliding out of corners, and forcing others off the track = real hardcore racing. :bigok:

Most times I've seen roadracers go sideways that fast it ends up in a crash or going off course! Amirite? I would say thats car control.

Going into a turn knowing you're gonna initiate a slide is one thing, and going into a turn at 10/10ths and then getting bumped in the back + sliding action is another.
