Default I'm out

Well after thousands of hours of donating my time to this site I am now resigning as a Mod.

I appreciate all the members that I've been able to share a lot of racing history with over the years.

The site is just no longer the same and I can't see doing this anymore.

For those of you that don't care or aren't interested in this topic, just kindly move on. I do not want any drama in here, just paying my respects.

Eric has always been one of the best Mods - level headed and tons of real life knowledge and experience!

I am sure your reasons are good and hope to see you around

working as a mod for free isnt always what its cut up to be.

Hopefully, you will still be posting. Shedding Moderator duties will give you time to settle in and start enjoying your latter years of life. If you ever get back into racing, I'd like a shot at you when I get back out on the track next year. Good luck.
