If you wanted to start small I mean your average saturday night bracket buster combo your gonna spend at least 20/25K to get the ball rolling

This answers it perfectly.....and it is just not affordable for the people the sport needs the most now.....the younger generation....
It was always a challenge to afford racing even when I started in the mid 1960's......add a wife....a couple kids....a mortgage and family obligations and racing is done....
That is exactly why I stopped racing in 1971 .....
Things change and I was able to return to what I enjoy doing but it was never easy and not too many people would do what I did to make it happen...
It takes a commitment and dedication....and the youth of today have neither for this sport...
They would rather play with a smart phone which to me is the most useless activity ever dreamed up.......
