RIP David.

Dave has been a racer and friend since the 70's. He worked at Bo Laws machine shop for years and then opening up his own very successful shop in Orlando. I last saw him at Merrill's funeral last month. He had been fighting the good fight against cancer. Jim

I know you are right Ron. Dave did some of Merrill's first race engines back in the day. They were good friends. Bench racing right now! Jim
