To My Fellow Promoters, Sponsors and Racers,

During August of last year, my staff and I had the pleasure of hosting the first National Super Moto Event in New England. The enthusiasm shown by all that were in attendance only supported my belief that the sport has great growth potential. Super Moto definitely made a positive impact in New England.

That is why it is with sincere regret that I write this letter to inform you that I cannot move forward with the planning of the 2008 New England Super Moto Race and I will be canceling the event. Following are some of my concerns:

• There has been no contract from AMA or DMG.

• It is still unclear as to who will be responsible for the current schedule, AMA or DMG?

• No contact information has been provided by either AMA or DMG?

• How can we take money from a sponsor if we don’t have a contract to protect the sponsor?

• Who will work at the event when AMA no longer has a staff to support the event?

• What will the sanctioning fees be, whom will they be paid to and when will the fees be set?

• Will DMG be making their own schedule?

Unfortunately, AMA and DMG have not made an effort to communicate with me. It would be unprofessional and unreasonable to schedule this race at the last minute. In addition to the time constraints; to do so would inconvenience the riders, teams and sponsors.

In my opinion, it is only through the devoted support of people such as Gavin Tripp, Keith McCarty, Troy Lee, Bob Weber and Kurt Nichole, that Super Moto is still a surviving sport. They have exceeded any and all expectations with very little support.

As a promoter and racer I can’t emphasize enough the disappointment I feel with the cancellation of this event. If there is anything else I can do in support of Super Moto, please don’t hesitate to contact me. My hope is that someone will see the potential of this fantastic sport and organize it into the well respected series that it should be. In addition, I would like to thank everyone that I worked with last year and for the opportunity of promoting the first Super Moto of New England!

Respectfully,

Chris Fischer, Promoter
