Nascar V8s? none lol. But I was referring to the frankenstein builds, and you hadn't quite answered my question and jumped to PTunings moderately tuned tC. Which is why I was confused in the first place. A good 3 posts back, talk about deflecting (again) lol.

Again Scion would not be the sole guilty party doing something that has been going on for decades. Scion gets the attention only because its the new kid on the block.
I was just leading into my next point, that wasnt about scion. But now that you mention it, it is the only car we've ever seen with so much marketing behind it in motorsports. Considering the stock car is not capable of drifting even in the tiniest bit, its astonishing that its everywhere in the drifting world. Its no wonder they're getting so much hate from grassroots drifters. BTW fun fact: did you know the first US drift champ drifted a FWD civic?

When I speak of drivers with the passion still, keep in mind I'm not talking just drifting here. DK represents drifting in D1. I am talking pro drivers everywhere no matter the discipline. Some are still passionate about driving.
Exactly, some. Those that aren't allow themselves to be bought out by scion. Get paid to drive something they couldn't care less about.
