And your snide comment about global warming is typical of your generation. No substantiation provided for the statement, just a sarcastic implication that if global warming isn't universally "understood" and accepted, those people who still question its legitimacy are idiots, for whom you can "do nothing". And precisely who in the hell are you? What qualifies you to teach anyone anything about global warming? Why in the world would anyone listen to you, if you did deign to try and educate them? You speak with completely unearned authority, presenting opinions and gossip-science as fact. And finally, nobody said millennials are solely responsible for the decline (and soon, death) of motorsports, but they have done virtually nothing to help.

Wow. He literally agreed its not a car culture...
So what qualifies
you to attack him? What qualifies you to attack a generation? Seems to me he was responding to an unprovoked and overly generalized attack on a generation that you posted first.... but anyways...
Back to the topic, I think JohnRodericks' post about the money and failure to adapt as a root cause is spot on.

Drag racing is still popular, its just that people have other events that bring more excitement and value for the dollar than the NHRA.
