Thumbs up Unscientific informal poll

Just for laughs.
Who has the same opinion as I do that we are not living in a car culture similar to what it was like in the 50'-70s?The point being that we'll never see a resurgance in fan interest in sportsman racing.
Just a simple yes or no.And post your age.I'll bet if you re over 50 you'll agree with me.

My vote:Yes 64YO

Sportsman racing as it currently exists in vintage muscle cars - no way.

Sportsman racing in imports and front wheel drive cars - maybe.

I'm 50 just like the Winternationals!

Ed, yes & I'm 51 but for only two more months, lol.

Carl, I'm still waiting for these Import fans to build a stocker racer to join us, and I'm nearly giving up on it now that the drifting joys and car shows that another spoke of seem to have their interest now...

Yes-62

I know you only wanted a yes or no. But.
Back then we built our own stuff. We went to junkyards got parts, made them work.
Now people just take their cars to the dynoshop. Fork over a ton of cash and they have a fast car. It's just not personal any more.
I think we have moved on from our love affair with cars
