Always been that way. I imagine someone is going to argue that this new generation is the worst... but it's just a never ending cycle where the older/seasoned people are appauled by what the younger/new folks are doing.

Kind of like how your parents hated your music... their parents hated their music... and so on.

Anyways, kids these days are dumber in general than my generations is/was at that age. That would obviously also show in their hobbies.

I blame it on movies like "The Fast and the Furious."

Kids get into "the scene" and just try to be cool. They think half of what they see in movies is real. I feel like every new comer drives with his seat reclined, gives the death stare to everyone, and holds there arm out the window like they're trying to touch the ground.

I've never been too fond on "the car scene" as in meets, shows, etc. though so....

I disagree with the "we were just as dumb"

These kids do it to fit in, to gain acceptance. I dont know about most of you, but i built my cars for me, fuck everyone else. I didnt care if you liked CRXs or not, I liked them.

This crowd is more about "Man i hope when i pull in the parking lot everyone likes me and friends me on facebook". These kids are weak minded, been coddled all their life.

I like to think that I'm one of the few who isn't like that.
Most kids I meet my age that like to say the know about cars either A. Don't know what they are talking about or B. change their opinions halfway through a conversation to be more like whatever I said. (for example if a kid was saying oh yeah I like Hondas and I replied with I'm more into nissans, there'd be like oh yeah your totally right nissan is better)

Street racing used to be a few guys hanging out on the outskirts of town. Then when the import crowd joined in it became teenagers in stock cars doing burnouts, drinking, fighting, racing anywhere and everywhere with no regard to the public, leaving trash and tearing shit up.

Cops had a gentleman's agreement to some extent with the old muscle car crowd.... soon as the imports joined in it became a war. I used to street race almost every single weekend and there was never any problem. Imports changed everything.

Here's the thing... Yes we were dumb. But we (actually I can only speak for myself) didn't do it to "fit into a scene" like the youts of today. There was no scene. If you "built" an import, you had to be prepared to back it up on the street because no one took it seriously. I can remember every douche that told me "bro, you only have have half an engine, I'm not gonna waste my time racing you"... Blah, blah blah. But the guys that talked the most, would never run for money. The one that could spot the Sneaky Pete system, I didn't want to run... 'Cause they knew their shit. There was no ready-made aftermarket. My first "tuner" (God I hate that word) car was an '87 Integra... Back in '89. I had to make my intake by hand... And no, not from PVC from Home Depot. Although in hindsight that probably would have been 100x cheaper and worked just as well. But I digest.

Yes we were just as stupid, but for different reasons.

Dont go to car meets... I hardly do..

Everyone has their fads and talk shit if you don't fit in. I've never liked any of the car fads but still go to meets to see other cars. I believe drifting has also changed the scene....its,made it where you can have a shitty piece of shit 240 but ur still cool bc you can ” drift” then the assholes try and sell those cars for 7-8k...dumb asses now I cant get a decent 240 shell without paying 1-1.5k which is what one running should cost.

Yes we were just as stupid, but for different reasons.

In a way I agree, but there are a couple of differences in my experiences.

Between you, David and I, we got pretty much the lifespan of modifying (tuning, if you'd rather that word) import cars. I bought my first issue of Sport Compact Car back when it first came out in 1988. I remember it having a 1988 red Nissan Sentra on the cover. The "scene" back then wasn't necessarily all performance. I was on the appearance side of the coin. I was still into mini-trucking so I took that mindset into my cars. I never had had go-fast cars. Mine were always sitting on the pavement and wildly done up in the style of the mini trucks.

Echo, I wouldn't necessarily say that we were stupid back in those days. Being that we were kind of going into uncharted territory, we were more inventive; hence you, and I for that matter, making homemade intakes because of lack of after market support. That's why lowering cars via torch or sawzall was very commonplace. Like you said, there was no "scene" in the import car genre to latch on to and follow. Now were stupid things done then? Of course. A lot of it, though, was in the name of advancement for this hobby. The more people that got into this thing, the more support came out from parts companies.

I don't know that I'd call what newer folks in this stupid in what they do. It's just that the modifications they are doing is, in a way, like what we did back then. Today, modifying cars is more of a trend thing. Everyone seems to find something to get with and they do the same. It's rare to see someone go out of the way for something new. And I understand that a lot of that comes from the fact that pretty much everything has already been done.

These are my words based on my experiences over the past 28 years in this.

i meant when they are working during the week they are waking up pretty early. As in they are used to it already from their weekly schedule.

That makes no sense, but OK. Lol

Well to someone that can put together a solid thought process..........hell, it doesn't even take that much of a thought process to realize that it does make sense.

But I'll break it wide open for you since you're not able to handle it on your own.

You act like you're trying to insist that whatever time a meet starts in the morning is not early to you as if you're some superstar 5am riser and you're out to impress folks with your ability to awaken earlier than anyone else. I mean if you can find meets that start earlier than 7am, post them up. For a meet, 7am is quite early indeed, sir.

Work on Sundays? It's usually at 7am on Sundays. Those Rich motherfuckers prob. wake up early, grab a coffee, go to the meet, then hit the closest golf course......


I rather be golfing.. Small observation, ive been golfing to many courses around here and never really seen a car worth looking at, at least during the tee times i play... Lol..

First got into modding cars when i was 18, so yeah i was dumb then. But I can say that I modded my cars for myself. Never had a tow hook, bike rack, sticker bomb, sharpy, or stretched tires or any other stupid trend. All people care about nowadays are getting a weak ass blog "feature" like it means anything since all it takes are wide wheels with stretched tires. People used to mod cars to be unique, but now they do it to conform to one another.

I was out of the modding game for many years due to our financial situation. Back in 2005 I briefly had a 2005 Dodge Magnum wagon that I murdered out...black 20" wheels, lowered, etc. When I got my hhr I back in march of 2012 I really had no intentions of modding but that didn't last long. I did the whole sticker bomb thing with it and realized how dirty it looked with stickers so I removed them all. Now I've got a clean tastefully modded wagon and its staying that way. I don't really get the whole stretching of the tires stanced craze. Not saying that I don't like it, just don't really understand it.

Pretty much. Get on the bandwagon or be uncool.

I post regularly on one of the big Miata forums, Club Roadster. It used to be a place with a wide range of styles and opinion, but for the past couple of years it has been nothing but "how do I slam my car" and "can I stretch a 165 on a 10" wide rim". I see a lot of people posting pics and asking "how do I get my car to look like this?". I'm pretty tired of it. I once said on there, which could be applied to any aspect of this bandwagon,- Inspiration should induce creativity....not cloning. Copy another car, that's a great way to show individuality....oh wait...this is CR.

Although I am not a member Of any club because I suck.. ( average about +12 over par ) I have played several High end courses all over GA.. ( over 20 courses last year ).. From Legacy in Smyrna ( $25 bucks for 18 holes ) to the Landing In Greensboro, GA , $215 for 18 holes, most expensive I played and one of the best courses in GA... Never really seen a high end exotic.. I'm not saying they do not go, I just say I never seen one, or maybe I wasnt paying to much attention.. I did play a couple of Games at TPC Sugarloaf with a friend who is a club member.. You know whats funny, although not an exotic.. Someone Parked a beautiful black on black ZR1 next to me at the Hooch in Duluth...lol but like the other person posted, they probably leave it at Home.

dumb, stupid, idiot. really? those are all the wrong words when it comes to describing a car dork. we were in the moment, in the scene. we were all shifting gears and blasting the music - all enjoying what we had in front of us. we laughed at the people two cars behind us, we laughed at the lames who hated on you because you were friends with the cool guys. that was fun. all the drama, all the laughs, everything was worth it.

sure we weren't smart at times. we all did many things that could have potential ruined someone's life

"woah golly geez, skiddley whiffers!! Julia, honey, look to the left...you have like 4 cars about to pass us really fast..."

yeah, it was pretty dumb - the action. careless. you the driver though, were probably hella focused, tuned into everything around you as you pass by cars going 140 mph...

uhhh okay so that does sound kinda stupid.

anyway, my point is that it's totally different nowadays. i have no idea what goes on with cars anymore. all i know is that i'm healthier now that i don't waste my time with cars, i'm sexier... yes, i'm almost 25 and looking super gangster. my arms, my pecs, stomach, everything looks as though they were sculpted by the gods of mount olympus. even the gap into which my arm folds that is know as my glorious armpit is incredibly sexy.

growing up has been the greatest thing to every happen to me

enough about my demigod-like looks

in summary, the new generation of car dweebs are probably 10x dumber and uglier so let's let them have their fun. let's also laugh at them as they pass by our suvs, our 35+mpg ride...they will eventually mutate into a more complex individual just like we all did.
