There were two boys about 12 yelling and cheering the vintage races on in the afternoon, but no others that I could see in that age group.

Guessing the CSX 2000 and 3000 cars will hold some value for the next 15-20 yrs and start to decline. The value decline will be due to the size/financial ability of the group of guys who grew up wanting these cars (obviously).

Never bought a 'fun' car as an investment. Just hope I'm healthy enough to have carefree miles of enjoyment. My desire when I sell my cars is that the next person will take car of them and have as much fun as I did. If I can sell them without taking a huge hit; all the better.
Why would you expect otherwise at the SAAC? Young people are not part of the "rich guys club".

Now go to some weird tuner event and note the full stands and lack of old people.
