Yes, no question about it. With the computerized cars today, it's hard for the average kid to work on their car. Gas was a lot cheaper back in the 60's, the cops didn't care as much, not much for TV's and movies so what else was there to do? Go cruising. I'm 59 by the way.

Yes, 52.

Excuse me while I go out to the garage past my 2 Hondas,
and hug my '69 Camaro convertible.

I can't drive it until the snow and ice leaves the area,
which is hopefully by May 1st.

I like Lee's comment best.

You can't beat that with a stick.

Yes, 23. I think the fan base for sportsman racing is non existent in the newer generation. Its pretty rare to find a person like myself that can't wait to start racing in stock eliminator.
