Am I the only one that thinks this looks just as retarded as drifting? What happened to the scene?

I did a few AutoX when I had my MR2. Just driving a SC I can tell you that its going to be very hard to do short, low speed, technical courses in it.
That is if you want to be competitive. If you want to do it just to have fun and "learn your car" more no one is going to stop you.

I am going to have to agree with you on it being dumb. Different strokes for different folks I suppose, but this isn't my kinda auto sport. Nothing like watching the Formula 1 cars go at it around turns going 160 MPH

Don't let anyone keep you from doing what you want to with your car.

true story
you have to admit that was a pretty sweet video that took some serious skills which not many people out there have.
