[NAKED MIKE]

damn is bill lacking in power?traction? bill blinding millen was fukin priceless he was owning that last turn

 

[Ka-Tony]

Rhys took a better line then Bill. I cant get used to Rhys without the goat.

 

[Charlie a.k.a. Chuck]

bill shouldove won the match, but the event looked wicked.

 

[drift a 944]

you guys should have heard the crowd cheer for bill when he did his runs every single time, and then heard the crowd boo when they handed the win to rhys.

bill should have won hands down.

 

[NAKED MIKE]

idk rhys was on his ass the whole time bill got left behind

 

[drift a 944]

that doesnt determine the winner though.

speed
clipping points
smoke
mimiking the leader
distance
smoothness
driver errors
and possibly the biggest factor... crowd cheer

 

[Tonymac]

From the vids, it looks like Rhys won. I'm all for Bill, all for underdogs, and all for Florida, but I can't say Bill got robbed.

i have to agree with tonymac on this one. bill ripped it up in that second vid. sick driving, but the distance between him and rhys on that first run was ALOT.

 

[drift a 944]

no, the distance LOOKS like it was a lot.
if you guys would have been there in person you would be agreeing with me. compared to some of the other matches they had and gave victories to, this one should have been a DEFINATE win, hands down.

bill got robbed, he did nothing wrong besides leave a little gap, rhys was driving straight and corrected a ton of times. He is the Forumla D poster child, so why would they want him to loose against a local orlando shop car? Its pro drifting, it sucks, but thats the way it is.



anyway, enjoy more pictures, courtesy of floridaracing.org!
