Really sorry to hear it Bob. Another bean counter mistake.
Like others said, I'm sure you will end up somewhere better.
Maybe take over VF on your own.
It won't be the same without your input there.

Thanks to all of you for your support. I will truly miss being a part of the CVF,(and the AutoRama and World of Wheels shows too), as you all know, it was "my baby".

Championship Auto Shows, Inc. is owned by Pete Toundas and Bob Larivee, Jr. The office number is (248) 373-1700.

WTF!

That was a total Bonehead move on their part, on many levels. You just can't replace what Bob brings to the table!

I don't think disclosing this will be an issue, at this point, but our contract as title Sponsors of the Chevy Vette Fest specifically included Mr. Bob Ashton's employment. I guess that speaks volumes regarding their thoughts about the 7 events we have sponsored since Bob took over?

Bob, I am truly disturbed to hear this.

You represented that show and organization as if it were your own. It is not likely they could find another car guy with your enthusiasm, dedication and professionalism. I am sure a man of your qualifications has much to offer many quality organizations.

Good Luck- Chris
