HyperTek · 09-21-2006, 07:19 PM

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 · 09-21-2006, 07:23 PM

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* · 09-21-2006, 07:33 PM

agreed /\/\

Suxors is he

A Spec Products · 09-21-2006, 08:06 PM

No need to hate on the guy.

At least he's out there trying.

And driving that Viper isn't exactly cake either.

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?

Dousan_PG · 09-21-2006, 08:13 PM

haha this is funny coming from hypertek
seriously
at least he tries!!

HyperTek · 09-21-2006, 08:18 PM

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$

Walperstyle · 09-21-2006, 08:26 PM

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! · 09-21-2006, 09:32 PM

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.

I don't know if any of you guys made it to the Mopar FD/D1 vs. NASCAR event about a month ago, but even NASCAR drivers, who drive 200mph 3 inches away from the wall and other drivers, were driving that viper like 16 year old girls with learner's permits. To me, that says a lot, i.e. Hubinette's viper is definitely not a toy, and to be timid in its driver seat is not necessarily a bad thing. Imagine if the kid was cocky about it? He'd go in there and hit the wall at 100+ and end up in a wheelchair.. No one would be hating then. Although, we all would still be pining for her sister, yowza!

TheSquidd · 09-22-2006, 02:05 PM

Who the hell cares. Professional drifting in USA is gay anyway. Hogan is lame, the idiot wrecked a Viper and blew up his Lambo.

ondatdryftonyte · 09-23-2006, 12:18 PM

WORD, that is a great point

*kognition* · 09-23-2006, 01:45 PM

Unfortunately, drifting in the U.S. had been pillaged to the point where Sears has a car?
Why even give celebrities with no talent the valuable threadspace? It seems like drifting has been driven into the ground so fast here, that they have to create stars like Hogan just for ticket sales. That kid has destroyed more money on wheels than i care to think about. Reminds me of the TEAM TYRESE drifting thing. Is that still around?

Brooke Hogan is attractive, she just tries too hard.

Anyways, Nick Hogan is deffinately not the most amazing drifter in the world, but you have to appreciate his attitude. He's probably the most positive person i've ever seen. If he gets some balls and commits a little harder, he will go a lot farther in the sport.

backroadtouge · 09-21-2006, 10:27 PM

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 · 09-21-2006, 11:03 PM

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

chmercer · 09-22-2006, 12:43 AM

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

McRussellPants · 09-22-2006, 01:04 AM

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.
