PitSolutions Posted June 5, 2011 Report Share Posted June 5, 2011 I'm not the kind of guy who posts anything on speedzone, i just read it. But when i read this one about David, i thought i would put my two cents in. A lot of you may not know, but he was my crew cheif when i drove for Turner Motorsports. I learned a lot from him during that time, which i still use to this day. When i got the phone call Friday night that we blew a motor in the 91 car, Larry told me the 15 car was available. I told him if we're going to drive a different car, that would be the one to drive. My main concern was to find us another motor for next race since we only had one. When i was told that David would crew cheif and take care of the car for Zak, i knew we could win the race on Saturday. I have the upmost respect for David and his family, except maybe JC lol. Thanks for your help and everything you've done for me in the past years. -Douglas Lege , Pit Solutions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JC your dad did an awesome job and you and Michael should be proud. I have never seen your dad race before, it is true what they said about his great driving skills. Maybe old men can drive.

racer61 Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 David was one of my favs when I was a kid running around the bleachers at speed-o-rama. Even today he step into a car and he is automatically one of the favorites to win no matter what class. Great job. P.S. maybe I shouldnt of said kid, uuhhhh I was older than a kid, yeah, lets say that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NowOnDirt Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 Lets all remember that just because he is old he hasn't forgot how to turn the wheel. I know he won the TIDA championships more than once in a scirocco. If you can't run with the old dogs stay home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
