Taking a break

 

[my friends call me Zappy]

Hate to see him go but, family first.

 

[StockersRock]

Agreed.

And then he'll come back and win another championship!

Good luck to him!

jeggie's talent behind the wheel is as good as it gets.

Family always comes before racing and running that kind of business is a full time deal for sure.

I wish him all the best. Jim Hill

That's THREE full time Pro Stock rides parked for next year ... I haven't heard of any new full timers coming in to replace them. Gonna be a lot of short fields.

Who are the other two?

Connolly, Morgan

 

[Demon]

His contract with Mopar was only for 3 years and it's ending this season.I say he will be in a bowtie in 16.

Not saying PS doesn't need a reboot, but the world isn't ending. Just like the fuel classes, I'd bet you'll see more part timers attending more races.

Connolly, Morgan

Has it been confirmed that Morgan is out next year ? I don't remember hearing this.

I agree, there's a lot of Pro Stock cars out there, probably fill in most races especially east coast races

I would say he hangs out next year, maybe help teams like Jim Yates has.

There was an article on CompPlus about a month ago. With Ford pulling out their support, he didn't want to start all over with a new program. He does say he is interested in building a Pro Mod, but he is done with Pro Stock.

Thanks Chris, I knew about Ford pulling out (I think John Force got all the attention on that one), but somehow the Larry Morgan story got past me. This sucks.

Thats why they need to dump pro unstock and replace it with pro mod, hopefully it will die.

Chris...I was thinking the same thing. The Mopar team wasn't the same without Jim Yates. I hope that didn't factor in Jeg's decision. Hate to to see Jeggie on the sidelines. He's good for the class.

Interesting that Jim Yates was back working with Allen Johnson Friday at Pomona.

Heard that Mark Ingersoll is not part of the J&J team any longer so Yates brought in for Pomona
