this ain't care bullshit is such a plague that it's ruined any rich history Hoonigan might have had.
No one denies they are pretty damn good drivers and the gymkhana shit is cool and all that but they essentially laid the ground work for all these ziptied, mis-matched, rusted out, basically totaled, shit sleds that plague the streets because the owners claim to be "pro am drift stars who just want to finish the event."

I don't understand how you think The Hoonigans "laid the footwork". Can you name any of their sponsored drivers who epitomize this? The people your using as an example are Wanna-be's who bought stickers, they aren't sponsored, or affiliated with The Hoonigans.
The Hoonigans have created a brand that is currently viral, thanks to several of their videos, and half of the 17yr old fart can driving posers in the country are buying stickers. Any time you have something go viral your going to have some idiots jumping on the bandwagon, but this doesn't mean you've deviated from your original intent or roots.
By your logic, you should stop wearing Nikes because lots of overweight people commit crimes in them. This must mean every person who wears Nikes is a fat criminal.
