I don't see it as a phallus measuring contest at all. You like what you like and others like what they like. People getting upset about who is right may need to have a look at themselves.
I don't really see how drifting is a sport. Sure they're talented but who wins seems to be a matter of opinion unless its really clear cut.
For a circuit car its mostly about making it handle and power is somewhat of an after thought. On the street, to me, that all goes out the window.
