Is this considered a sport?

I've never seen this type of parade before. Can't believe the pickup trucks.

Not my cup of tea. It’s a rich mans sport. There is a tape out there showing one of those bouncy cars popping off a hub cap and killing a bystander.

omg big toys for BOYS come to mind -just a load of crazyness - the word sport does not enter into it !

Some of them are pretty cool! It seems like more of a kinetics competition than a sport.

Not a "sport" in my book. Just big boys with their big toys showing off.

 

[SetWave]

More like a competition.

Waste of fine automobiles.

Don't know why, but video reminds me of extremely confused dogs attempting to take a pee-all have urinary tract infections.

If this is where auto sports is heading, then count me out. I've been a low level participant and life long auto racing fan and I hate to see the sport desecrated with this kind of crap.

Racing is racing and I see no connection, except that the vehicles (I assume) have 4 wheels and an engine.

Over the years many (and I do many many) critics have said synchro is not a sport. As a former athlete and coach, I have attended many sporting events over the years. The single toughest pre match workout I ever saw was in synchro. Contrary to what those critics say, yes it is a legit sport.
