It appears that the landracing.com message board has gotten to be too much of a pissing contest for Jon Amo to handle. The kid has to work for a living to support his family but the work load trying to moderate the board overwhemled him.
Like many message boards this excellent communication forum was a boon to the users, be they old salts or newbies looking for answers to their questions. Despite repeated pleas from Jon, the some people took over the board for their own agendas and drove off many users. Some input from potential new racers indicated that they were turned off by the welcome they recieved and decided to do something else .
There was availbale to anyone posting literally hundreds of years salt experience to draw on. It is a shame that this has happened. The board was several years old and had a lot of info and photos that Jon had gathered.
Hopefully, Jon can bring his pet back on line soon,
