Another tough loss! I first met Dave at Skagit. It was the '90 or '91 Dirt Cup I believe. Rick Freund had him on board as a sponsor and Steve Kent was gonna drive the car later that year....or maybe the next. Rick came up to me at my t-shirt trailer and introduced us. Rick was saying that Dave's house had just burned down and he lost all his racing t-shirts....asked me if I could outfit Dave. I gave him a handful of new tees and Dave was very grateful. I found out later about all his Shell stations.....HAAAAAAAAAAA!!!! I always busted his chops for that. Of course, Dave would give me a new tee when he saw me out on the road. Dave was a good man....I'm gonna miss him.
