[edit] Wow,
This whole entry more or less is based off of Initial D and has no bearing on reality. I doubt this should be used an a entry for 'touge'. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 69.199.227.136 (talk • contribs) .
- What happens in the fictional Initial D is based and exaggerated on what is being done in the real Touge.

[edit] Sentence should be deleted.
"Unfortunately, this is mostly derived from fiction and fantasy propgated by the current fads and their icons such as "Initial D" and "Wangan Midnight.""
Not only is this sentence poorly written it contains original research/unverifiable information/POV. If no one else has any objections I will get rid of this sentence. --Jayson Virissimo 04:57, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Wow
Someone's been reading too many comic books. This is nothing like what actually takes place on the mountains in Japan. This needs a complete rewrite. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 221.21.96.102 (talk • contribs) .
[edit] Where did "general tips" come from?
The list of "general tips" is totally pointless. There are no citations nor fact to back up any of these claims. I agree with the others -- this seems to be a rehash of Initial D myths. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Thegsrguy (talk • contribs) .
- A factual citation of the tips is from Keiichi Tsuchiya, known as the "Drift King" for most people, in an episode of Best Motoring video magazine. He, like many Japanese drivers, starts driving in the touge before being a professional race driver. His words are fully creditable. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 69.193.159.72 (talk • contribs) .
[edit] Wow
Moving this "caution" added to the article by an anonymous user to the talk page. If you have a problem with the article, then fix it. Recury 14:31, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
- CAUTION:
- This article propagates several incorrect or exaggerated notions as to the meaning of the word, "touge." It is believed to be maintained by what is commonly referred to in many circles as a "fanboy," or a person who is hopelessly devoted to a romanticized version of what is in reality not a dramatic or widely-accepted phenomonenon. It should be noted that several attempts at article cleanup have been made, all of which have been reverted to the following over-hyped and unverifiable "definition." Should final cleanup ever successfully occur, it is recommended that this article be locked and the originator of the proceeding rambling, incoherent, incorrect and poorly-constructed text be banned from editing this page indefinitely.
- What you are about to read encompasses the term, "touge" not as it relates to reality, but rather the distorted and simplified "cartoon" or "video game" understanding, completed by the spelling and grammatical errors one would expect to find in a section maintained by an overenthusiastic pre-pubescent with little actual experience or knowledge regarding the facts.
