Demographics of this Forum

At 56, I tend to be one of the older members in the hotrod & high performance forums that I'm a member/moderator for. I don't think that's true here.

It would be interesting to see the different age groups the members of this forum fall into.

I'm 53, so I guess you are an "old" man.
