The End
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Pure Stock Participants and Fans.
After considerable thought, we have come to the difficult decision to terminate the race after the 2010 event. Our decision was not based on any one person or event, but a multitude of issues that have challenged us for the past several years. Despite all our efforts to try to resolve these issues fairly, we discover that they just get worse. It is unfortunate that a number of cars are built outside the spirit of the event, even after talking directly with those involved. Our wishes fall on deaf ears. This race has lasted sixteen years now, far longer than any other race, and far longer than we ever expected. However, the end had to come sooner or later. We are tired of all the bickering, finger pointing, and name calling. And tired of the rules being pushed to their elastic limits, and interpreted for ones own personal gain. This event used to be fun, even for the both of us! Well, a few overly competitive minority has spoiled it for the grass roots majority. It is with deep regret that we've come to this conclusion, but we are not happy with the race in it's current form, and we don't see any way of fixing it without making major rule changes. We thank all of you for your long time support over the years, and especially to those of you who came for all the right reasons. You know who you are.
Sincerely,
Bob Boden
Dan Jensen"
There goes ALL the fun... Chitt...
Let's hope someone picks up on this and continues it somewhere else.
