How on earth is need for speed second?

That's rather mind boggling.

And GTR2 is almost last? It's not really the most amazing game, but I was fully expecting that to be in second place.

In Formula D, which is "professional drifting," they aren't really racing. They're scored on proximity, angle, speed, etc.

Arguing and getting uppity about it is absolutely pointless. This is like people arguing about how circletrack racing is boring, or how F1 is stupid because the cars are too fast, or equally idiotic arguments that are based around OPINION.

If you don't like drifting, don't drift. It's not a big deal. If you don't like F1 cars, don't drive them.

Don't even start to argue that any kind of racing takes less skill, or that people who can't race; drift. You have never done it, and judging from the level of maturity around here, you have never driven in a race based around speed or laptimes in actual life, and not in a game.

I'm not defending drifting, I'm not saying it's better than anything else. Everyone has their own tastes. Stop worrying about it (I will note one thing; there seem to be a lot more jerks on drift servers. I imagine this is because drifting is currently the hot new thing to do, and it attracts people who have the STREET RACER DRIFTUUUUU attitude).

EDIT for more clarity and irritation; someone racing normally would certainly "beat" someone who is drifting. Speed around a course is not the point. Arguing that "BUT US REAL DRIVERS GET AROUND CORNERS FASTER" is completely against the point.

Yay, I ordered my G25 on amazon. It should get here the 13th.

I can't wait to get a bunch of odd looks for having a racing wheel in a college dorm.

Oh well, no less silly than guitar hero, and way more fun.
