Hate to see V retire. I have known V for 18 years, one of the finest people in the sport and on the planet. First class individual.

pro stock has been on life support for at least a decade and will be gone as we know it within 5 years. The bigger concern should be is when does the plug get pulled on professional drag racing that the NHRA has been trying to sell for the last decade?

I have a feeling there will be more following V in the not so distant future. Pretty sad. The whole pro side of the sport is in big trouble.
