Its a different world. Just look at the age of most of the Stock and S/S racers today. Could not get them interested in Jr. dragsters either. They were boring to them when they were younger. I sometimes wonder if they are really mine.
You nailed it. A lot of kids today don't even care about getting a driver's license until they're practically forced to.
