Wow... thanks for all the replies... where do i start? first of all Zenki, who is Mr Lim? you seem a bit of a pessimist to this event and the sponsor who will bring this event from paper to life. Anyway curiosity killed the cat and i wont reveal the company responsible just yet.
For all your reasons for doubting that this event will come true, i just have to point out in one sentance that DRIFTING IS THE FASTEST GROWING MOTORSPORT IN HISTORY. Need i say more? Look at x-games for example, is there actually such a strong following here? and yet the x-games held a leg in kl.
Look at china, the biggest population of bicyclist in the world and yet F1 tickets were sold out half a year ago.
No, i'm not thinking of US drift scene, those kwei los cant even choose the right car let alone drift. However they did bring in the whole entourage and it was big and succesful.
As for the aussie scene, well lets not compare them to us, as in terms of international motorsports scene, i feel that they are behind us somewhat. Whereas they are comparable to us in the local modded scene and other areas such as hot rodding and car club scene. And who are the people into the local modded scene Down Under? the asians. Malaysia Boleh, Australia Tak Boleh
I will take a look see to all the locations you guys have come up with and will keep you guys posted in this topic.
cheers
