CHAIRMAN gone.

The chairman of the Barbados Association of Dragsters and Drifters (BADD) Adrian Linton has resigned. And in a letter, e-mailed to the executive Wednesday night, he said he was stepping down with immediate effect.

He becomes the third top official to leave the five-year-old motor sport organisation.

The first to go was founder and first chairman John ‘Tiny’ Harrison who passed away three years ago, followed by his brother Nicholas and now Linton, who had headed the club for the past two years.

His resignation is believed to be linked to controversy over a time of 9.936 seconds recorded during the Nostalgia-Past Meets Present Acceleration Test event at the Range Strip at Paragon by David “Bally” Balgobin, in a Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IV. (TT)
