They do it a differently.... and I respect that

Good post OP!
but this: new school = young guys / old school = old guys.
...simply not true. at all.
I can data log and change adaptives/tune on the hellcat just as easily as I can tweek the AFBs & set timing on the demon.
each one gives me different experience. My hellcat club has mostly old guys over 45-50 like me, few kids can afford a $80k-$90k fun-car note, but I cant count how many of them also have older project cars, bikes, whatever hiding away in shops and garages. yet my nieghbor who is slowly building a 72 duster 340 car is only a few yrs older than my son.
no such thing as new tech=young kids / old tech= old men.
We are all the same, just the method of delivery/interaction/end product has changed.
besides when im in either, I'm all of 22yrs old again! :)

Cool Cars! Sorry you missed the point of my essay.... LOL

I will say that the older generation is "forced" to adapt/learn some as times change, we have to change with it. Young kids have "no need" to learn the classic world. They would learn because they "want" to.

How many "fuzzy dice" do you see hanging from new mustang mirrors? Snorkel hood scoops on new challengers? Of course, civics jacked up in the back end with air shocks or spring shackles are a common site...….. and of course they all understand swapping jets in between runs at the dragstrip. Just say'n, it's done a different way..... and that's ok
