About The Driver...
After a short but successful stint in the fiercely competitive Super Rod class Dave moved up into a 360 Ford powered Sprintcar. A Cleveland Steel block was prepared and a 360c.i. Sprintcar was born. The blue, yellow and white rocket ship was about to stick in a number of fans minds. After a steady debut at Geelong’s Avalon Raceway in the 360c.i. the team began to come to grips with their new baby. In Dave's first season (2000/2001) with the new car he won a feature race at Wagga Wagga and was judged the rookie of the year in the SRA Sprintcar Series. It wasn’t long after that a Ford 372c.i engine was slotted in to the car as Dave’s new found confidence egged him on to try open competition. Ever the joker, one only has to look for the “TOYminator” (Dave's nickname for his car) in the pits to find this happily married character. If you ever get a spare moment after a race meeting make sure you get a chance to talk to Dave. Career
