Stuff you should know:

1. I pretty much recorded every driver's qualifying runs but I can't identify everyone. So if you want me to upload your run, you'll need to identify yourself so that I can find your footage to upload it. Meaning show me a picture of your vehicle with your name or something.
2.. My battery died around the middle of the last group's runs. Because of that, I wasn't able to capture the groups 2nd and/or 3rd runs. Stupid camera.
3. If for whatever reason you want me to take your video down, PM me.
 
Heres my shitbox Bladder
And if you only got my 1st or 2nd qualifying run, they're probably real shitty video lol.

dude watch your line. You clutch kick into it then go way wide of the Racing line. The Proper line is part of drifting not just an opinion of mine. I know you have never met me and i've only heard good things about you driving skills but please understand a clipping point is a clipping point. If you were going against D1 drivers which is what the D1U lisence is for you would have failed.

Dude, it was a decreasing radius turn, and this IS drifting. That's like saying "scraping the wall at Irwindale is gay because it's not the racing line!". I had no idea I was going that wide because it was a wide open parking lot, but I was still late apexing and hitting the clip point. As far as I know, you don't hug the inside of a decreasing radius late apex turn. Also, I had so much fun that day. If your racing line involves taking away from the fun I'm having while driving, then fuck it!

Yeah i've always thought the getting close to the wall on a oval was very weird to be judged that way. If it was a track and had grass instead of more asphault you would most likely been off course. Two reasons why oval tracks and parking lot events suck. I totally agree that you don't hug the inside of a decreasing radius turn but your line is way to wide.
 
I dont want to sound like a dick but why was everyone haveing such a hard time with this layout no one could figure out a proper initiation.All the people who were entering in therd over shot and everyone entering in second was supershallow.Theres nothing wrong with holding second down the strait in order to have some rpms left for that first turn.By the footage that wasent a thurd gear turn unless you had baller angle and were roastin the pepe out of the tires. Oh well just my observation im not tring to flame anyone.

I was in 3rd as well as the majority of the people in those vids im pretty sure, the course had low grip and intiating in 3rd it was off throttle a lot in turn 1, if you stayd on it much at all you just went off into oblivion. And then little blips after each clip was about all you can do on it.

In the drivers meeting, Bill said floor it and I don't want to see any brake lights or hear you let off. So thats what I did until about the first clipping point then I put it in second.
