I would echo some of my points into the ending that way the reader does not have to re-read the essay to understand the main points of the speculation.
And depending on the topic, a larger implication can be made.

Journal Entry # 6d The Causal Argument
I think that I should propose as many causes as i feel necessary to make a point, or get the information i want across to the reader.
In my personal way of writing, I believe that the proposed causes should be from least important to most important. That way, people are left with a hard jab with "facts."
I could anticipate objections by speaking not only with friends that are in this "fad" or "trend." I would aknowledge the existence of objections, but since it is a speculation paper and not an argument paper, i do not have to refute all of them.
There might be some stupid objections, but the most important and significant objections should be included to provide both sides of the story so the reader can see both sides.

Journal Entry #6c The Presentation
Yes I do need to demonstrate that my subject exists. That way i can obtain credibility amongst the readers.
Since I am just speculating on a "trend" or a "fad" and not arguing for it, I am able to give my personal opinion where it is here to stay or not.

Journal Entry #6b The Beginning
The opening would have to point out that it is a new craze that has been taken in with greater acceptance than other "crazes" in the past. i.e. cars with bodykits.I believe that I should provide different views into my paper such as Saporito's, Goode's, and McClain's.
First hand experience should always be included, that way your readers dont say, "hes probably never been affected by it, or done it." With this topic, it is kind of hard to provide statistics, but anecdotes can come in handy.11/15/07 Journal Entry #6a FreeWrite
Drifting:
I believe that it has become such a popular sport because it envolves doing automobile stunts where you can surely end up hurting yourself really bad. It started in Japan a couple of decades already, but it has just recently started gaining popularity. Human's nature is to go really fast and show off; that might just be the male's side, but thats one reason for such interest in Drifting. Being able to control a vehicle at such high speeds while going downhill on a curvy road such as 94 East is what makes it interesting. Drifting is not meant to be done on public roads where people can get hurt; never try this in a public place. Cars can be modified not only with visual aspects, but with motor parts to make the Drifting experience more enjoyable and easier to do. There have been competitions to demonstrate who is the ultimate Drifting champion, not only in the U.S. but in other countries as well.
JDMism:
When Fast and Furious came out, all the adolescents wanted hondas with body kits, big rims, neon lights, and loud exhausts that could be heard a mile away. That was 4 years ago. Today, the adolescents are taking another approach to modifying their beloved Hondas. What better way to modify their honda, then by adding all the parts that are manufactured in Japan. This is where JDM comes into play. It used to be what kind of body kit you had on your vehicle, or the number of TV's inside your car. Today, it's how JDM you are. What is JDM you might ask? JDM stands for Japanese Domestic Market. Anything built by Honda in Japan for its Honda vehicles is JDM. For example, a 1998 acura integra in Japan comes with long slender headlights, where as in the U.S. it comes with small round headlights. The round headlights would be considered USDM, versus the JDM ones. JDMism is very much the appeal or the desire for whatever the vehicle that was made in Japan comes with from the dealer.
