One of the problem I see as far as the younger generation is the high cost of buying the current fast cars. Hellcats, GT 500s and Copos. They could buy the lower HP cars but by the time they buy the add ons they would have the same money just buying the fast ones straight out. What kid has $80,000 laying around? The rice burners are their only option unless dad is already in the sport with an extra car. Very expensive today if starting from scratch, just think how much you got in your car right now (whatever the year) not including the extras. Defiantly not like back in the day of $2900 RR , $3100 Z28s or 428 Cobra Jet Mustangs. Most all of us kids could afford one of those making $100 a week.
