Nick Hogan

[HyperTek]

I saw him try out for formula d qualifier a few months ago or so at irwindale, and he sucks.. or maybe it was the fear of goin into the wall which resualted in him doing poorly. but i havent followed him recently. Has he improved? I know hes like all the rage in drifting coverage in mags and etc.. but seriously lol

Think Mopar even sees that he sucks? wonder if they will keep him next year

[LB.Motoring]

LOL, seems like he busted a

did one song, then done for....

I think maybe hogan jumped a little too deep.... If he started from the bottom and worked his way up, im sure he would have gotten much more respect and support, but he jumped in at the top, celebertiess....
If he started at the bottom, even i would have prob respected him...

[downshift_sideways]

agreed /\/\

Suxors is he

No need to hate on the guy.

[Dousan_PG]

[HyperTek]

There is some hating going on, but I can understand. If you saw the interview after he wall-checked the Viper it didn't add to his credibility either. Pfeiffer seemed to intentionally mislead him to talking about the spindles affecting his angle, more so than a tie-rod issue and even Pfeiffer made some comment that seemed cynical referring to earning respect. This was on drifting.com. Doesn't the viper have one of the longest wheelbase(s) in the current league?

[Walperstyle]

peeps talk as if the respect they give is worth anything.

lol, just do your own thing, do it good. Also realize that you will probably never compete in the D1 anyway.

This thread will end up like people talking about football. Crazy fat fans sitting on the couch trying to make decisions they have no control over.

The thing is.. if your suppose to be pro, yyou should be good. now of course they wont let a fat fan get into the NFL... well thats the point! Mopar sponsered a teen, not hating on him, but he should have a long way to go before getting full sponsership..

i mean we got some good drivers on here, dousan for example etc.. who would be more deserving of a sponsership blah blah

[!Zar!]

I concur with Aaron and Logan.

Get off the dudes nuts. He isn't the drift king, but last drift battle event he did fairly well.

He drifts a lot better than say "Chewy".

I was apart of the bandwagon that hated Nick.

Then I fucking grew up.

To answer the statement. Yes he has gotten better. and I doubt mopar will drop him. You as well as I know that there are people worse than him still sponsored and in formula d.

whoops

[backroadtouge]

i remember reading that he drove a s14 before the viper and thats what he learned basically with? am i crazy for thinking i read this, cause i could sworn his lil post he made on drifting.com said so. im kinda jsut wondering if anyones seen him before at a event, pre viper?

[myzislow]

hahah... IMO he isnt a very good driver, if you listen to the car during the run he is either (1) scared as f#ck driving that insanely fast mopar, (2) has a limited concept of car control. because he get in the power and kicks out ok and then back off almost instantly when near angle, then when hes headed toward the wall hes all brake and understeer, that thing is a torque monster and I'd rather spin.

not trying to hate and def not on a bandwagon, after all his dad is the sickest "wrestler" ever....HULKAMANIA HAHAHA

Austin, I love you, but it doesnt take parents to go drift. All it takes is some cheap tires, gasoline, a welded diff and 105$

[chmercer]

no shit dude

at least go to a drift event one time and under steer around, maybe pchop some smoke on the rear tires, get a couple action shots, then maybe everyone will stop talking shit on you constantly

He never drove the S14.

[McRussellPants]

Yeah, WTF?

Calling people out on sucking at drifting the bank when all you have under your belt is shitty hardparker shots in a junkyard? Lame.

Furthermore, talking shit about Nick Hogan's parents dumping money at drifting is lame balls.

NEWSFLASH: 90% of racecar drivers got their break after their parents sponsered $50K+ a year rides in karts, midgets, Spec Miata, whatever. Cars are expensive, making it more than a hobby takes more than a job at costco.

I laughed my ass off at his plow session at the qualifier, but he still eats less dick than you.

[WILDACEX187]

all the comments on the vid say that on his earlier practice runs he was killing it doing sum good driving and then the car started having problems. just like an american car to break down when shit starts getting good

[blu808]

I didnt know what to think before meeting him, but i had the chance to hang out with him pretty much all day before the altamont drift battle, and he is actually a really cool guy.

Hes a good guy in my book. and his mom is really nice as well.

[A Spec Products]

WHATCHA GONNA DO BRUTHURRR

when the millions of fans and these 24 inch pythons run wild on uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

i should change my name to hollywood hulk logan

but to stay on topic

nick hogan gets mopar exposure. who cares if he isn't placing, etc, the point is that people are filiming him, interviewing him, and talking about him. so, i think mopar isn't trippin. plus too they have hubinette, so that fool kills it all the time.

im just glad that nick hogan is getting out of that supra dyno queen scene he used to be in. now that was lame. all that HP and nowhere to put it down.

Fuck Nick Hogan....Lets talk about Brooke Hogan

[LB.Motoring]

^Rofl might as well.... oh plastic facess...

[blaze1]

I was at the qualifier.... he looked so so with the viper. Alot of smoke, but it wasn't clean like Sam, and he couldn't link the course either. Spun out in the inner bank alot, seems like he was too afraid to use the E brake and had too much clutch kick.

But I think any other privateer would have done better in that car, and they deserve a factory back team.

I heard that nick screwed over a few Florida based S chassis tuners to drive for mopar, and if it wasn't for them Nick wouldn't of got in contact with mopar.

Everyone has the right to critisize him, factory back drivers are supposed to be good.

I already stated one, "name".

I don't feel as being so tasteless as to start naming out names.

Use common sense and put two and two together.
