Well, have a shot at visiting the threads in the official forum and you'll get this vibe all day
I'm not trying to impress anyone, I'm just strongly justifying my viewpoint and reason that follows it. If you don't like it, too bad.

Why not though? Hm? There's a timer, there's a track, there's fast cars. There's the point.

Because drifting has no place on a track day. Do you see drifting happening on trackdays outside of this virtual world we call LFS?

You can easily go to dedicated race servers and hotlap there. There's no need to introduce rules that will restrict certain players from doing what they loved to do in the first place.

Drifting is fun, and racing is fun. Yes.
But both do not belong on the same piece of track at the same time.

There is a need to introduce rules that will restrict certain players from doing what they love to do if their actions have no place on a trackday, and it ruins the gameplay for other players who are also doing what they love.

Because UF1/XFG/XRG have the capability to move about faster and have the nimbleness a light-headed drifter with super-heated tires doesn't have.
