Over the years an enclosed trailer has pretty much become a requirement due to theft and vandalism at the track or on route. At the same time its also a place to stay out of inclement weather when at the track, I remember many times huddled in the truck with heater roaring to keep warm at the track. Also when was the last time any of us brought our race cars to the local carshow / show and shine on a off weekend. Most likely not many. I know i am guilty of this, used too bring mine out on every oppertunity I had. Running or not. I aways had people young and old come over and ask questions about the car and about dragracing.

If I say this again I think my nuts are going to fall off.WE'RE NOT A CAR CULTURE SOCIETY anymore.Younger generation could care less.I read an article stating they're all consumed by their electronics and video games.A study also said car ownership by under 25 years old's is at an all time low.
As far as spectators here in the NYC area there's the fiercest competition for peoples
entertainment dollar.And *iss on the foreign cars and pure stockers,they couldn't draw a family of flies.

Ed, I agree with you 100%. I have read numerous articles about the younger generation's lack of interest in cars. All they care about are smartphones, video games, ipads, etc. They don't even care about getting their drivers license when they reach legal driving age.
