Leaded gasoline wasn't fully phased out in the US until 1996, not sure about other countries. The millennial age bracket starts somewhere around the birth year 1982.
Fun fact: it's still used in piston aircraft.
Edit: sorry, that's not very fun.
NASCAR didn't switch to unleaded gasoline until 2007, and test scores went up in the areas surrounding their racetracks in the following years.
Apparently you can still buy leaded race fuels in the US today, wtf? Ban that shit. I was watching a video yesterday of someone why brought their time-attack racecar to Australia and they had to retune it for unleaded because leaded is banned there. I was blown away they were using leaded fuel in the first place.
1996? The USA is Liberia with money
Yeah look into Liberian history and you’ll understand why
This made me reconsider the foundations of the high crime rates in the neighborhoods nearest the very busy small plane airport in my home town.
