The decline continues...

i was at my local drag strip recently and the price of admission was alot less than I thought it would have been. I was thinking at least $25 a person it was $15. And test and tune night to run my car is $30 and $20 for a guest/crew. Not bad I think. I suppose if they jack up the price no one will come out...

What I see is alot of "street" type YT videos and ""Street outlaws" it seems to be promoting carrying on on the street whereas when I was young we were told to take it to the track, street racing was frowned upon, too many innocent bystanders got hurt 35 years or more ago. I think there is still a law on the books in Pa if caught street racing they take your car and you don't get it back.

Race tracks are closing every single year. Unfortunately a large part of the country does not have a track nearby. I lost a good friend to wreckless speeding so I’m not going to be an advocate for street racing but I understand why it happens. Also that show is an absolute joke.
