I was watching the Formula D live stream and I saw this giant turd of an ad

Look, I love drifting more than most people do, but this is just god damn awful. It's emblematic of all of the wannabe lifestyle flatcap wearing shitbags who don't understand anything about the sport.

I'm glad they like cars, but this is just... so bad.

Motegi Racing's AE86 is one of my favorite AE86s out there but that doesn't mean I didn't nearly vomit while watching that. Holy crap that was bad.

Could they not afford to get a driver that could do more than half assed donuts. Been annoying me since live stream of long beach, unfortunately I'll see it many more times since I stream every round.

Definitely. MotoIQ did a writeup on that car and it's pretty awesome. Looked better red though.

wtf... So basically it's somebody doing some parkinglot donuts but happens to be on a race track, being supported by the worst music I've heard since Kanye's Bound 2, and some "look at me being artsy 'cause I'm throwing paint at something".

How is this a commercial.. for what? Why? Who are they trying to reach..? I don't..

Not as bad as that grid girl commercial with Taka Aono. Pretty cringeworthy if you ask me.

I agree, I saw this during the FDLB live stream and I hated it every time it played.

I'm a pretty rare person that likes just about everything! However, I can't really stand country. It caries a pretty bad stigma with me lol

Haha. Well, once again, whatever makes you happy :) I have a broad taste and I can usually enjoy anything people put some genuine effort into not for money but because that's how they express themselves.

Where from the EU are you from btw?
