I will post for Dave since he hasn't been on for awhile and he's out of town.

Dave is not racing this year (after being a racer for 4 or 5 years???) plain and simply because of money. Seriously, that is it. We didn't have the money. We bought a house last year, we lost a roommate. We just can't afford it. If he raced and something happened that was going to cost us largely financially, we would be screwed, so he took this season off in the hopes of coming back soon. We miss everyone so much. But yeah, money is our issue. :roll:
