Im just not to fond of the new GTO in terms of looks. The power is nice and it probably handles well. But, I just dont like it. Like the 2005 Mustang, the looks are just dumb. Personal preference

I think it's great that some domestics are getting into the drifting scene. Everybody loves an underdog, and this american car may be just that... I hope it kicks ***..

I really dont care where the wining car was manufactured (austrailan sources say the monaro is not a very good drift car :pface ). I just want to see good drifting.

after watching the video, the only underdoggedness i could see would be the car looking kind of big.?I think he will kick *** as long as he keeps it on the road... win... idonno?

That GTO ROCKS!! I saw him at Formula D1 in Atlanta. If he was in the final, it definitely wouldve been him and the viper going at it. I saw them working on it, so I assume he broke something. That car is extremely impressive in person, whether or not you like the way it looks, you have to respect it. Like gttune says, there's nothing underdog about that GTO......just my opinion

He got pretty badly booed in D1 at irwindale. He stopped getting booed as much when the japanese judges showed support for the domestic. Personally I dont think he did that great because maybe the car is simply too limited, or maybe hes just not good enough compared to the japanese drifters.

Honestly I think the car was crap as far as a drift car. However, that just serves to give me more respect for Rhys since he was able to make such a good showing with it.

yeah the vid was cool. he wasn't going as fast as your normal drift, but i guess with all the weight and power, it was easy at lower speed. i found it on some japanese website? didn't save it though.
