Establishing and spreading touge culture in Turkey

i20 N 1.6 T-GDIEver since the day I got my license I've watched TV shows like Best Motoring, Drift Bible and Initial D, and with the influence of master Keiichi Tsuchiya, I became a Touge enthusiast — I've gunned it on mountain roads at every opportunity, even trying to create opportunities for it, but I couldn't find many people in our country to share this culture with. Even though it's grown a bit lately, I don't think it's reached the popularity of things like rolling drags or gunning it on the highway. I'd like to meet friends here who share the same passion, get to know each other and spread the culture

Even though I've had hundreds of hours of training, I stay aware that I'm on public roads and I don't cut corners; it's impossible to properly instill this culture into the "fastdrivers" corner-cutting crowd, they cut corners without even seeing what's coming around the bend, and a lot of innocent people have died this way. Especially in countries like ours, I'd prefer this kind of thing to stay something 3-5 friends do among themselves.
Translated from TurkishIt's a different perspective and I respect it, but by conveying it the right way to the right people, we can minimize the cultural degeneration.
