    Default Taking a break

    After much consideration, I have decided to take a break from the DDP. I still plan to compete in league races on occasion. Guys, I am just burned out and can’t get the fire going. I am sorry for announcing this so late, it’s just been a difficult decision to make.

    If someone has the passion and desire to take over the DDP this fall, feel free to contact either myself or David Anderson. You would have the freedom to take the program in whatever direction you think would benefit the participants and the league.

    Thanks for understanding.

    Jim,

    your efforts here have been tremendous and we are privileged to have you a part of CMS. I totally understand when it's time to take a break and step back to focus on other things. I think it's healthy and am very thankful for all the time, effort and energy you have put into making the DDP such a cool part of CMS. I hope you are able to race and participate some still for sure, as it's great having you around.

    Like Jim said guys if anyone would like to take an opportunity to help out here let me know and we can talk about possibilities -- David

    Thanks Jim, for all your time and effort in running DDP.
    DDP to me was one of the best things about CMS.
    Enjoy your break and I look forward to racing with you when you decide to return. Tom Cav

    Jim, your efforts and expertise through the DDP were what got me off to a great start here. From you and Paul H.'s excellent advice and driving tips, my driving skills improved exponentially. Thank you!

    We have missed you at the races and hope you can make it back soon.

    Taking a break is the best way to re-stoke the fire for sure. Thanks for all your work with the DDP, it really is a great program.

    Hey Jim,

    Breaks are required past times.

    You have been a major fixture here at CMS and the efforts you have put forth ment much to many, myself included, though not as often as should have and really wanted. Memory falted me to often.

    Always enjoyed our time on track together. Maybe someday we can meet up, or down as you would say, at RA for maybe the July, Brian Redman, or Kohler historics events. This year was not a good one for us but maybe next.

    Good luck and keep on, keepin on.

    Larry
