Hey Guys,

A number of things have been and are happening around La Casa de Mojo in 2020, and because of this I am going to take a break from league racing for a little while. A couple of you noticed I was not at the last race, and reached out. Thank you.

Everybody is fine, but with all that is going on around here these days and some burn-out on top of that, it is time for a break.

I will still be playing down in the Mojo Pinewood Shop, so if you need something (wheels, jig-a-loo, bodies, etch...), let me know!

I am not going to call this retirement, because really, how many times do we see people "retire" only to be back at racing within the next few races.... LOL

Good luck and race hard !!!

Jay - Mojo

I don't really know what to say... besides... this stinks. I don't like this, but I totally understand where you're coming from brother. You will be missed on the track.

Wow- I’m sorry to hear that. I hope everything’s okay.
Jay,
Although we may have had a difference of opinion on a few things I want you to know I have always thought of you as a mentor. I have always appreciated the things you shared with me. Thank you for the help you gave me my rookie year.
Mike

A little break is good sometimes. Scott
