Scott, drifting is far from dead in the US. It's just D1 which really wasn't a big series. Besides a couple of the jap drivers, everyone who was really competing in the US D1 series was also competing in Formula D or at least NOPI.

For someone who claims to know about the economics of all this stuff, why are you not understanding why these races are shown at the times they are? I mean it would be great if they bumped NASCAR primetime stuff for a random race in a smaller series on a different continent just because you want to watch it, but that's not going to happen.
