Re: R.I.P. Danny Durham (Geerhead55)
We were so saddened to hear of Danny's passing. The first time I remember meeting Danny was at Seattle in 2010 on our West Coast Swing. That was when he presented Larry with this!
 Then we met again at the 2nd US Class Nationals in Columbus in 2014. He gave us some photos that he had taken at the 1st US Class Nationals in Byron, IL in 2001. We may have met at that time, but it was so hot, I did not get out of the motorhome except when we were running down the track. When Danny gave us the photo, it brought back such memories that I went back inside the motorhome and cried for a while. This picture is of Larry and our dear friend Jerry Newsome running for Class in B/SA. Jerry has been gone from us for a while now. Hopefully he and Danny are running for the big Wally now!!  RIP, Danny and Jerry Patsy & Larry |

Our thoughts and prayers to Danny's family. I had the pleasure of meeting Danny in 2014 at the Northern Class Nationals in Ohio. Another great person gone from the racing community. God Speed Danny.

Aw man....didn't see that coming. Traded lots of emails with Danny when I was building my car. As Jim said, Danny loved Novas. Never got to meet the man, but always wanted to. RIP

Re: R.I.P. Danny Durham (Geerhead55)
R.I.P Danny.
I always looked forward to his postings here and his extensive knowledge of who is who in class and old school class cars. We are on opposite coasts but class racing thru the net really makes friends. God bless Danny's family in this time and the future. Chris O'Keefe Thanks to all who wrote before with wonderful stories and pictures. |

Re: R.I.P. Danny Durham (Geerhead55)
I met Danny in the grandstands at Seattle several years ago. One of the few who was there watching Stockers at the weird times they run at. Sad deal there with the cancer. Life isn't always fair.
