having 1000hp dont mean shit, holden are in it because they know that the young kids are into the sport and it will move there cars if they get them into the spot light, this is the best way of doing it and it would cost them zip all to give some one a new car

The IDA guys were all having a bad day, James was all over the CAPA ute until his intercooler pipe came off, Stephen was doing REALLY well too and then he spun and lost, Beau was still trying to adjust to drifting the sti, and Josh was awesome until he destroyed 2nd gear.

i wouldn't be bagging out holden too much them helping sponsor a team is likely to bring the sport into mainstream motorsport, thus probably helping it get on TV.

meh the bogans are already watching drifting think about it the only reason they watch the v8 is too watch ppl crash or spin, drifting is a form of motorsport that sees plenty of carnage and lots of spins burnouts it already has the bogan element.
Ever seen the hill at oran park the hairpin is bogan central lots of spins burnouts and accidents and they love it.
