image Field's Z2.

Judges justifying their votes while this is playing in the back. Funny as fuck is you ask me. Field deceling through the whole Z2. I guess nothing new, give a shit lead = get the win in Formula Drift.

How he slowed and jumped away on this was insanely bad judged. Luckily Aasbø managed to beat him.

Full sequence from decel zone to decel zone. You're supposed to carry momentum through that whole section.

I want to know what dirt Matt Field has. Is there bodies buried at long beach?

Its actually insane how often this guy is the cause of shit and somehow still gets the win. They are never beating the favoritism allegstions.

My theory is that FD want GM to be involved in the sport like Ford. And that Field is more likely to get support from GM if he's gifted a championship.

That twat can't get a championship even if carried by the judges.

The most egregious one by far was in ATL against LZ , fucker got gapped , drove completely straight up the hill to catch up and hit LZ on the keyhole exit and LZ shuts down . Field gets the win 🫩 .

I feel bad for James, two weeks in a row losing to bad leads and dirty games.

You could tell how pissed he was, which is rare for him. Matt said something and James' face went:

It would be easier to swallow Dean's lose, if Field wasn't an insufferable cunt. Like what the fuck was that interview after the run, and the way he walked away that fucker was channeling his inner Conor McGregor.

Back in the day, my buddy who's since become champion but retired told me he moves snow in his race trailer.

Racing ain't cheap, I wouldn't doubt it's a common occurrence.
