Interest in the CDW27 cars will not "die off".

Just like above, there are still Merkur and Capri clubs. Even the Mavericks and Falcons have loyal clubs!

This year, I think the interest has dwindled due to the recession.

People don't have extra $$$ for mods, 2nd cars, trips, and extra time too.
Also, summertime is when people are outside, not in sufing the net.
