DMEC Round 6 2018 - Top 16 Battles

[@RonnyScott]

Fd needs to have broadcast like this, solid work!

[@twostangs81]

Great presentation. FD could learn a thing or 20

[@twostangs81]

Better camera angles, better courses, better commentating, more people in attendance etc. Just because you enjoy watching FD like the rest of us doesn't mean there isn't room for improvement.

[@twostangs81]

While i agree that i enjoy getting a judges perspective from Ryan Lantaigne, Jarod Deanda is a bit much at times, but a great commentator nonetheless. These guys have some decent chemistry here and they work off of each other well, where sage and deanda seem to be at odds sometimes. Either way i dont hate FD i just want an improvement, look at this series and the amazing tracks and attendance numbers. FD atlanta is the only one to shake a stick at these courses, all because a lot of american tracks have shunned drifting and treat it like the skateboarding of Motorsports. In Europe they jumped head first and have made an amazing series while we in FD grow exponentially slower.

I agree on camera angles, but these commentators.. Each battle isn't about to change the face of the earth forever, they need way more technical talk. "I have never seen a battle/event/run like this in my life" is the only thing they really say. Jarod and ryan arent gods either, but at least theyre real sometimes.

[@twostangs81]

Good for you bud. Im sure they will miss you, maybe i can get them to beg you to come back?

[@kurzjames]

The camera angles, the smaller tracks, and the Irish accents make this series my favorite to watch online. However, having been to FD events live, I can confirm that the fast tracks with 110 or 120 mph entries is a spectacle like none other

The drift masters judges have terrible verbiage when explaining. Giving Forrest a loss on a double 0 run is a terrible call. A 0 is a 0. Chase car follows lead, lead goes off, chase follows. What else is expected?

[@skate_or_dylen2176]

Forrest got lead off, -1 mckeaver. Forrest leading there was no deductions. End score is Forrest -0 deductions, Dwayne -1 deduction. Forrest should’ve won!

[@ludvigakerlind]

Battle start at 25:00

[@kurzjames]

The battle for third place was the height of this competition

[@Ronin_Marvin130]

They robbed forest wang on his battle bruhh

[@pauloricardoeletroxp]

Forest Wang eliminate top 16 :(

[@Codeman887]

I am so happy the judging isn't still this bad. I get it, you don't like US drivers. But that was blatant bias towards McKeever. Holy crap, I can't even watch the rest of this year's events after witnessing something so egregious

[@oscaralvarado2899]

This waiting period for judging needs to go. Implement the sensors to keep score!!! Make the drivers earn points by hitting the clipping points sensors.....DO IT!

[@thekovewithak]

If anybody gave em the money, any series would do it... we all agree it would be a good addition to the judging system.

[@kurzjames]

The problem there is that the sensors can't assess fault when drivers make contact with each other. Maybe the judges could be relegated to "referees" of sorts? That way the clipping points could be judged by sensors and the assessment of fault could be judged by humans.

[@skate_or_dylen2176]

Terrible idea. I hate Red Bull drift events.
