Dave "Mr Workman" Workman: RIP

Carguy49 · 08-28-2020, 01:06 PM

I didn't know Dave, but knew the name. I would always look for him in the qualifying lists from various events (it has been awhile). I have read the great stories that have been posted about him.

R.I.P. Dave. May his family and friends find comfort at this time.

Dave was a great guy. He always had fun stories. RIP Mr Workman

I enjoyed talking to him in the staging lanes at Firebird, and Las Vegas. He was a great story teller, and he really know how to race and enjoy it. Chuck, I know you just lost a very close friend.
Rest in piece Dave.

Raced with Dave in the old AHRA days, Beeline, Phoenix Dragway (Speedworld) and Tucson. Had a Maverick at one time. Great character for sure.

I was going to add this info to my other post, but decided to make it it's own deal.

I just looked at the Q list from Bowling Green. Isn't the Mustang that Kelly Pott-Hall running Dave's old car. Even the same number 7706. If I am wrong blame it on old age, and such.

The car Kelly is driving is NOT "Mr Workmans" that is a fresh Rusty Hall build. The Number "7706" belonged to Bob Pott , Her father.RIP

God Speed Mr Workman.... Raced with him many times , great guy! the world is a lesser place with out him in it.
