Ideally, we would all reach out and mentor a young automotive enthusiast today—and I’m not talking about having tween-agers judge a concours, although that’s wonderful and necessary. I’m talking about reaching out to your ratty-looking neighbor kid with the slammed Jetta, the young fellow at work with the embarrassing stickers on his old G35, the one dude at the track day who is in everyone’s way. Share your passion and your positive outlook with them. Try to restrain your natural impulse to tell them how much better it used to be, or why we need to lay off on the bad behavior nowadays. Just support them.
