Formula Drift

I've been watching the 2007 competition on ESPN for the last couple of nights.
I was suprised at how short the runs were. For some reason, I thought the races lasted longer with fewer runs.
I'm also finding it very fun to watch. I caught myself saying "I can do that" more than a few times.
Having done a lot of "drifting" in snowy parking lots as a youth, I am very impressed with the car control on dry pavement. Going sideways around a corner at speed and staying just a few inches off the other car's bumper is quite impressive.
Anyone else watching this? Opinions?
