WCHRA LEADER RESIGNS

Donny Chavez has resigned his position as President of the West Coast Hot Rod Association in order to pursue new challenges in his life for 2008. The WCHRA came to life at Speedworld Dragway in Surprise, AZ in February of this year provided the west coast racers with another place to race street legal style racing. The racing was intense through most of the year and a couple of classes went to the season finale before a Champion was crowned. Chavez explained his decision in a letter on the WCHRA website that is published below. donny.jpgDonny Chavez has resigned his position as President of the West Coast Hot Rod Association in order to pursue new challenges in his life for 2008.

To all racers and friends,

It is with great heartache that I write this letter to announce my non involvement with West Coast Hot Rod. Due to personal reasons I will be focusing on other aspects of my life and will unfortunately not continue with my roles with the WCHRA. Those at West Coast Hot Rod will continue to succeed and provide a great place to race; your support of the program will ensure the goals, future and longevity of where the WCHRA will be going. This past year was absolutely unbelievable and I wouldn’t have traded it for anything, we accomplished so much in very little time. The WCHRA is sure to continue on the path to being one of the elite drag racing organizations in the country. I would like thank all of you that supported my dream. I have made some great friends and will continue to keep those relationships by supporting you during your achievements and future endeavors. I will be attending races as a spectator from time to time and would hope to be able to stop by and chat with all of you. We all know there will come a time when we must all leave this earth and I know that when my turn comes I will leave a better person because of all of you, thank you for all the memories! For Racers…By Racers!

Thanks for the good times, Donny
