Livestream craziest Drift Event ever - Karpacz Touge Sept. 13./14.

Just watching it now, the lack of organisation is ridiculous, along with the terrible commentary. However the drifting looks very good and it's unintentionally hilarious.
 
the poor people that paid into that.

not the organisers fault by what i could make out, more the town council or something.

was good from what happened anyway
 
I get the feeling the Police have kicked off about it and have said no more twinning as they think its too dangerous
 
Wondered why there was so much of a police presence, laughed hard at commentator at one point when he gave plod a zero for going straight.

Bit of an anti climax of a finish tho, probably for the best after all the carnage
 
First off the organiser gave their best to make this event as safe and as smooth as possible and it was the best organized event I've ever been to - seriously.

It was just a quite a bit unfortunate what happend.
When Karkosik (the pink S15) crashed, one of the concrete barries tipped over, which then in turn tipped over a fence which hit a spectator on it's leg who gained access to an area where he wasn't allowed to be in first place.
According to polish law, every injury which would take more than 7 days to heal out, is considered a "severe injury".
If that would have been the case, the event would have been stopped immediatly and the police would have to document all circumstances of the incident and so on.
Well the delay happened because this guy had to be transported to the hospital to get x-rayed, and everyone had to wait for the verdict. But by the time they announced that his leg wasn't broken, it was already too dark and the track surface had cooled down considerably making it very unsafe for the drivers to push the limits like they we're before.
So the organizers and drivers agreed that it was the best to end it right there,as everything else would have just led to more crashes. I'm not sure how they will decide on the winner, or even if there will be a winner.

Highlights of the day (including the crash that ended the event):
