      @@rydermannon7774 I didn't say that the car in the video is a stock or mostly stock RX-8. I said that Rx8s are underappreciated. I still think that, in general, the RX-8 is an underappreciated car.

      this is wishful thinkinh thou. no way Red Bull and Monster Energy will work together for a drift battle. Red Bull main rival is Monster Energy.

      lol some doofus with a lot of movie magic vs a professional drifter who wins championships.
      see how many tire marks are on mike's vids vs ken's?
