Everything's got a mascot, what about drifting?

[vinkento]

What do you think people, what's the best mascot to excentuate the drifting persona? If your choice isn't in the poll, just bold it in your post so everyone will notice

 

[LanEvo]

PENGUIN!! they drive around on they're bellies on the ice. i imagine if you watched discovery channel long enough you could even see one drift!!

edit: crab is a close 2nd since they always go sideways

 

[RotaryPower]

ummm, ide say a hachiroku would be a good mascot for drifting cuz i always think of drift when i see one. from the list i would have to go with.......a penguin?

 

[BEPM]

for sure PENGUIN i would say to they are fast and slide around so much it would be sweet as ever.

 

[vinkento]

I wonder if you can drift in tux racer for linux... wish I hadn't gotten rid of mandrake. (sigh)

 

[soarersruleall]

what about a panda??? i mean a lot of people think of the "panda bear" 86's from initial D when they hear drifting...

 

[bustwave.]

Panda! HAHA

 

[vinkento]

hehehe, a panda might be cool... but a panda is actually a really slow animal and only symbolizes one car. The trueno is my car, but I think a penguin or crab work best for the effect.

 

[bustwave.]

Penguin vs. Crab

i would pick the Penguin

I looked it up before I spelled it out and it seems it can be spelled either way as pertaining to culture or language. This one I just found was most fitting. Sorry if I offended. And I'm sorry for your loss.

 

[Super-Supra]

Its ok man. It's a hard word to spell. :roll:

 

[ConvictKid]

I think it should be a squirrel, you cause when people get side ways, some would say "WHOA, you got a big squirely(sp), on that one"....what ever, i like the pangwin too

 

[VenomousDrift]

Clearly, drifting is all about pink Vitz's!

Venom

 

[Sheron]

I voted for the Pink Vitz, but a penguin is good also.

 

[Kamui D]

If i had to pick a mascot, i beleve i would have to pick a low pro. tire, w/ lots of negitve chamber!


or a suzuki cap.


What about a big red D

 

[Gil]

Not that I drift, but that d*** squirrel in the GIECO commercials, only flattened as road-kill, would seem appropriate.

 

[Super-Supra]

I say the best would be Bear.

 

[LanEvo]

bear??? how...

 

[ethikz]

I don't know about you guys, im still sticking with the Advan Umbrella Girls

 

[Kamui D]

they seem to be the logo for drift now, huh...

 

[Omnis]

how about a nice car......(vitz sucks ass)

i got an idea for a costume tho.....

ok the whole person is a car, and aroudn the knee part of the leg you wrap coils around (shocks), and on the shins are these tires, and attached the the feet are big white sheet thingys (smoke) that drag behind the side-facing-foward car.

IM GOING TO MAKE ONE FOR HALLOWEEN!!!

SWEET!!!!!!!

 

[S13DRIFTSPEC]

Why the penguin? Go for the crab! The crab doesn't always walk forward first it actually walks more side first. It's just like drifting they go side first in a turn. That's why some people call drifting crab walking.
So CRAB!!!!

 

[ethikz]

lol, the only thing about crabs I like, is that they taste good.
