Why the fuck is NO ONE talking about this???

So i just noticed something. If you count all of last season and all of this season(so far) there have been 12 events(36 total podium spots) that have been awarded. Out of all 36 total podiums only 5 of them have been american drivers. Anyone else think thats a bit crazy. I understand international drivers dominating overseas but it seems they can even come to america and dominate us on our own turf. now dont get me wrong im not hating on the international drivers(my top 2 fav drivers are james and piotr) but it just seems as if even for the premier series in america, European drivers seem to dominate the sport. Why is this the case? Is it just that european drivers are more passionate and take drifting more seriously. Curious to hear what yall think?

With Ben Hobson’s increase in form lately, do you think he’s done enough to stay at RTR or will Vaughn look to make changes for next season?

Realistically that car should be top 8 every round minimum with the occasional outlier bad weekend.

If you do think they’ll make changes, who do you think gets the seat?

Anybody else buy tickets...and then get 2+ cold calls about extended auto warranty coverage for the next week?

Relatively sure theyre selling lists to these shit companies. I always got 'roof inspectors', never a cold call for warranty (my2015, so not recently lapsed factory coverage).

FD is coming to Indy for the first time this year and I’m very excited!

Me and my friends are used to the Indianapolis 500 where you can bring in about as much beer as you can carry, but I see that there is a no outside alcohol policy for FD events. While I respect that, has anyone been to an event and can tell me how much a beer is?

Beer + fast and loud go together hand in hand for us Indiana folks, but I wanna get an idea beforehand when we go
