Rather inciteful article on Competition Plus

Take a look if you have a chance.   John Asher could be right about several things in this one..  AND yes, the same thing does and will continue to affect Dixie for a long time.

LOL.  Yes that is so.  I think my eyes started tearing up about 3/4 through.  But still a pretty good article which makes a good point..

Wow I am 29yrs and I read this and it is very true. Just in my short life I have seen this happen. Growing up I remember all I wanted to do was work on hot rods. I was 13 bought me a vw and worked on it till it ran redid the whole car. Now I have a 10 yr old who would much rather play the omputer then go to the shop with me like I did with my father. We have got to reach out to young kids or I agree the sport will did. I think alot has to do with the rules are so strict now. I am sure the car most guys ran back in the 70 would never be allowed on a track now.

Very true! I hope at some point you can find where your 10 year olds interests lie and get him/ her involved, hopefully he/she will find a common ground with you...

 

He is getting better but it is just hard to keep his attention long enough to learn. I am build a camaro with a blower engine right now and he seems interested right now but time will tell
