Drag Racing is Dying

The fact that it's a old mans game doesn't help. No offense but to really be drag racer you have to have a healthy source of income these days. When you older guys were kids you probably idolized the older guys running big block cars and blowers. Today the kids do the same thing. They don't have the money to go out and spend a couple thousand on a car then dump about six or seven more thousand into it to make it run fast.

For me almost every cent I made went toward my dart and it wasn't until after I graduated college and got a decent job that I was able to really start getting the car into the racing phase.

I still think it has a very healthy crowd with the younger guys. Seems like one of those things the old timers always talk about. Sort of like the old guys that say the sport of hunting is disappearing.
