Too bad on the Grip Video site they think "Ranzo" is spelled as "Ronzo". 
The SCCA is thinking of doing drifting that's done in the vein of doing an autocross? Hmmmm, sounds familiar. Gee, that's exactly what happened this past Sunday. It's called Gymkhana and if they decide to start doing it, it'll spread like wildfire.

What is the point or benefit of any motorsport??? The only reason any of them keep going is because people enjoy doing it and more importantly is armchair racers like watching it. The manufacturers of parts and such use the experiences at the track to develop new and better stuff for the everyday person.
