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.

There was a pretty good indoor car show in Rosemont,IL a few weeks ago.I went there on a Saturday night and was surprised that there weren't that many people there.Hardly anyone under 40.
I really don't think that today's generation,for the most part,is in to fast cars.If they were,how many can really afford some of the things at the show that were on display,like this?

A lot of "kids" today can afford more than you think.
When I was a "kid" you could not wait to get out on your own.
Now "kids" live at home, and mommy and daddy don't take a penny of their hard earned money.
