Hi All,
Might I humbly suggest that the best way to get younger owners interested in
our clubs and hobby is to promote more "driving" events.
I belong to the oldest Triumph marquee club in the US and attend meetings
fairly often. I would have loved to have been in this club 30 years ago when
autocrosses and rallys' were a regular feature. Perhaps local marquee clubs
could partner with SCCA or NASA to put on more performance driving events.
When these events are easy to attend and open to everyone we all win. Young
drivers get a chance to learn respect for their cars and the laws of physics
in a controlled environment. Older drivers can share their experience, and
the community benefits from all drivers improving their skills. There's a
reason why they're called "Sports Cars", let's not forget that.
Cheers,
John Matthews
