Racer Bill Syfan, who has spent the last 2-1/2 years as Director of Road Racing for Clear Channel Entertainment Motor Sports, said Sunday at Road America that he has resigned, effective following the June 14-16 Formula USA National at Loudon, New Hampshire.
Syfan, 44, said, “The plan we had when I signed on to do this job and the plan the company has had to adopt are different, for a lot of reasons. I wanted to build the premier racing organization in the United States and that is no longer possible.
“Formula USA is in good hands and a big part of what I was doing was helping CCS, helping guide it and expand it, and we’ve done that. Double-digit growth in our sportsman series in the last two years is pretty impressive, and that’s the base for road racing in the U.S.”
Syfan said he is currently exploring employment opportunities in the racing industry. “I’d be interested in consulting with riders and teams,” said Syfan, who can be reached at (817) 989-0060.
Syfan said he is also looking forward to personally racing again in the near future. He last raced in 1995.
Clear Channel Entertainment Motor Sports Vice President of Operations Roy Janson could not be reached for comment at post time.
