Lumping people into a stereotype, based off what they drive is foolish in my opinion. I've never done it, and never understood people who do. So that's probably why we are debating this.... 
Personally, I've seen just as many foolish people driving around in domestic cars as I do imports.
BTW, I drive a Ford truck every day (have owned several, owned several Chevys and a Dodge), I know the Jap's can't make a good truck.......lol |
It is the person, not the car. But it just seems that more serious racers (even young ones) choose domestics, while the "hey look at me crowd" tends to choose imports. I'm not saying that that sums up all import racers, however they have that image and they need to overcome that if they want to be taken seriously by old school racers then they need to separate themselves from that mentality and those who promote it. NOPI was a traveling spring break side show, that happened to center around cars. It was never, nor will ever be taken seriously as a racing venue. I think THAT is the major issue that confronts import racers. The have to separate themselves from that image.
