By your logic, professional diving isn't a sport, even though it's in the Olympics.

I like drifting and road racing, I don't think the two are mutually exclusive. The skills learned in rallying, NASCAR, drifting, whatever motorsport can be brought over to the other facets of motorsports. One of the top drivers in the Laguna Seca drift contest was Rhys Millen, a former rally driver.
Is there no room for "beauty" in motorsports? I found a lot of the drifts that day at Laguna Seca were damned sexy!

karate and boxing matches are judged by points also...
and breaking bricks and wood, also judged. If those do not require some sort of strength or talent. but hey, i guess being able to kick everyone's *** cant really be considered a talent or a sport eh?

I see the beauty of it. You could compare it to either ice skating or the WWF. Just depends which way you look at things.
