I do not claim to know where the next generation is going to come from. I just know what those kids will tell you about NHRA (or even IHRA) class racing. They have no interest. And it isn't the cars that don't interest them. It is the rules, the format, and the structure. They like the "adrenaline drags" and all of that. They like nitrous, they like big cams, they like adding a supercharger to a normally aspirated car. They do not like RULES, they certainly do not like the idea of thrashing on the car, especially not teardown.
