There is a lot more to just car and driver involved at that level of competition and class (and it is really hard to tell the cast of characters without a program also in an unsigned- but very well intentioned, thought out (full of grace both giving and receiving), and heartfelt social media post). Well done to the writer. I cannot certainly blame them for their decisions whatsoever for whatever reasons, will miss seeing their participation in the class, but you must respect their reasoning and personal reasons. The old saying comes to mind..."But there, for the Grace of God, go I."

Here's the more specific & correct wording from one of them post. Yes, you're correct, he didn't state he's parting with NHRA racing.
"As I?ve often suggested to those who saw it this way, we will no longer compete in these heads up Factory Showdown or Factory X classes in the NHRA." |

For the first time?, all eyes will be on Factory X at the next event, and the Blackbird car decides to walk away. They were running very strong at Indy. They have the driver. The class now has everyone's full attention. Hopefully they reconsider and go out there and kick some butt.

My understanding is he is done with Factory X, but still has customer cars running in FSS.
