Very sad news !!

I met and chatted with him for quite a while at our 1st WC Corvette Challenge of the year...... very nice guy and an absolutely flawless car.
I think he has been the only racer to participate in both the East Coast and West Coast Corvette Challenges.

My heartfelt sympathy goes to Dave's family.

Damn :(

Dave was one of the "original" guys who ran the CC a few years back.. I still have his front tires on my car now... We agreed on a price & he REFUSED to take the $$ thats the type of guy he was...

If anyone knows where I can send condolences to his wife let me know..

thanks

I'm in shock, this is a deep personal loss, Dave was always a big part of my Corvette family. My thoughts are with his wife.
I'm at a loss for words.

Dave was a GREAT guy and was always one of the greatest guys to talk too at the track. I was sad when he moved out west but knew he was looking forward to it.

This is a great loss! :blueangel:

Awful news indeed. He'll be missed.

As a tribute...is there any way at the next challenge we can have a procession for him as we did for Romolo? They're both friend's forever now. :blueangel:
