The biggest problem is how enthusiasts are starting to view one another. In the past, there was always an ‘us’ versus ‘them’ mentality;...
Sounds like a kid that has no idea how far back the modding scene goes imo.

I'm guilty of some of what he says....

When you see a old 60's-70's-80's muscle car..... I think/comment.. its great in a straight line... but can't do the curves like we can.

And I grew up in the muscle car era!

Very true...otherwise I found the article insightful. While this seems to be "let's all be friends" type of propaganda...I personally believe that all the hellaflush fags can gtfo & esad.

There are "types" of car people as there are "types" of people...and as my grandmother used to say: "Birds of a feather flock together."
