Was the first person to approach me when I joined the asra. Always a gentlemen. And a tuff competitor. Sadly miss. Thanks for all the fun Dave.

Raced against Dave since I started in 1974, we laughed, we agreed , we disagreed, we both wanted to beat each other every time we raced, but most importantly, Dave wanted the best for the sport, and deservedly so , that brought him the respect that he deserved.

Rest in peace my friend

Never forget A/SA Class @ Indy 1990. I had him covered performance wise but the .500 light he hung on me negated that!!

A Gentleman and Class Act all the way.

RIP Dave

I never had the pleasure of meeting the man but from the articles I read about him in magazines like Super Stock and Drag Illustrated I felt like I knew him. RIP Sir, you were an asset to the sport.
