There is some truth there. A lot of people got into it as kids because they wanted to see a car "like dads" beat the other one. And a lot of adults (mostly men) liked to brag and argue in the pub, bbq, school yard, that thair car was better because it won races.

Now we all drive suv, twincabs or maybe ev we dont care which is fastest.Winning Bathurst is no longer how we rate cars. And the cars on the track dont reflect what people have in their driveways
