    I could not wait for this. It's finally here! you would know what I was talking about if you follow drift alliance and bloodmasters. It brings back the true spirit of drifting, having fun! Something that seems to be missing today

    Those guys are having a blast!

    Wow those guys are having fun. Looks fun too.

    They are apparently not afraid to beat the E36 M3 out of their cars.

    Other than having fun, what's the payoff for these guys? It's hard to imagine doing that much work and spending that much money just to trash it without some sort of reward other than just having fun and showing off.

    Isn't that what cars are all about?

    Looks like it was worth every dime to me.

    +1000 yeah same here and that's the thing, the cars and all the upgrades really aren't that bad, compared to their "pro" rides. It's about having fun and that just summed it all up Graefin ;) I got to meet pretty much most of the drivers in the video and they are some of the coolest and chill guys you'll ever meet. Met tham at Club Loose's East Coast Bash last year. You should go to that, you'd have a blast!

    that's what's cool about these guys, yeah their pros but they aren't racing celebrities and bilboards. That's what's so great about drifting, these guys are like us lads, the grassroots of the racing world of today.

    People are so worried about engine swaps and you have to have a V8 and you have to have top dollar e36m6 and cray wheel fitment, that's what's nice about the video is that it just gives that whole subject a middle finger and a big berkeley you! Just to have fun with it all, with your buds, that's what matters!
