X tech man said " think Im gonna PUKE !"

why would you not be concerned about the future of Super Stock racing > i am confused about this comment also

Its not that we dont have enought car bodies to build.....The problem is where is the new blood going to come from??? Its the drivers/buildrers/engine builders/and so on and thier AGE that is "killing" the stock and S/S classes. That and the fact that NHRA and IHRA does NOTHING to promote the class. Adding foriegn car bodies wont cure anything. That and the fact that its way to expensive for the younger generation to just jump in and play. Most of the young drivers today are off spring of all of us old farts from the car era of the 50's and 60's and early 70's. The young people want less BS (tear downs) so they run the 90 classes and they get to go fast without all of the BS that goes with a class car..[/QUOTE]



So let them run brackets and .90's. I spend a lot of time with the 20 something yo's and they don't give a damn about drag racing, they just want fat tires, loud exhaust, and big stereo's.

I sometimes take my PT Cruiser to test and tune for some fun....there NEVER are any young kids there with their Hondas, etc....never!

If they want to play, let them play by the existing rules or go drifting....
