The bigger question to me is will the new "HP Wars" of today garner the same magic of the 60's and 70's did?

I have had Boss 302's, Z06/Z07's and others. Will the current cars like the Demons and others be the ZL1's and Hemi's of the future? Sadly I do not think so.

I have enjoyed them, and to be honest, they are faster, more comfortable and just better cars. But, they don't have the memories that the Muscle car era did for me. And that's really what we are talking about, memories of a more carefree and "free" time in our youth.

With all of the regs, rules and tracks shut down. No street racing (and the consequences for same brutal) and of course, Video Games what they are, kids will not be making the memories we did.

Go out and buy a copy of a Grand Theft Auto video game, that's what the kids today will remember of cars from their youth.
