    I'm 20, and I used to be the same. My grandfather got me started in cars, and he scared me shitless of EFI, computers, automatic transmissions. I ended up taking a leap by building a turbo miata with a full standalone ecu, and I dyno tuned it. Now I'm an electrical engineering student and old tech is more scary to me when it comes to tuning an engine. I love having sensors and data logs for everything, and I can safely tune for max performance in every cell and situation. I'd wire in a EGT and wideband sensor for every header runner if I could afford it. Anyway, I'm still glad to have experience with classic and modern technology, and I certainly appreciate all builds, but my 13 year old self would run from the tech I use now. It all starts with a leap and a desire to learn; the internet has all of the information you need.

    The kids are all right just give them an old muscle car for some experience of what my generation drove, this Camaro is like my '73 LT z28 with 350 L82 turbofire and it had a Rochester carb that served that motor well I swear it could rev to 8,000 the Muncie shifters weren't very reliable and missing 3rd gear was the result and the reason the handling was great for that era having bias belted wide ovals on steel rims I sold it for a 79 Vette which was a disappointment to me

    Even being 26, with no car channel and moderate tech skills, 3:11 made me cringe. It takes 20 mins to figure out how a carb works. Depressing to see people my age purposely avoid them. I'm usually the one laughing when 1 of your 500 engine sensors fail. I've been on both ends and the lack of electronics on carbed machines is a god send. No spider web of wires that you have to chase all over. No potential random sensor faults. No low signals. No frayed looms. No ecu management or errors. Turn a screw while hooked up to a vacuum guage. Done.
