Motorsports and involvement with TIDA/TPS has been a big part of my life, but it is time to move on. I have a fishing boat. My wife Rebecca and I will be fishing more often and also spending time with my elderly father in North Texas. I want to express my best to you and the TPS organization. We do have a great group of people associated with the Texas Pro Sedans. Sincerely, Robert Carter”.

 

Upon receiving Robert Carter’s retirement announcement, TPS Race and Administrative Director, Neil Upchurch said, “Robert and Rebecca Carter have been devoted and loyal officials.
