This is MOST premature to say the very least in a very charitable way. Where is the promise that was made back at the beginning that this would be in production for several more years??!! Did the Rotax executives only listen to you or did they do due diligence and talk with the F500 group BEFORE making their decision. I think the answer is obvious. As word spreads thru SCCA officials (who, I suspect, were not consulted either), Rotax's name will become MUD, something I did NOT want to see happen. This unilateral decision could hurt the F500 class within SCCA. I implore you, Tony, to bring together the Rotax decision maker(s), the SCCA officials and F500 drivers for a discussion on what can be done to rectify this bad situation. Stan, any help here?
