RIP

That was a cool dude. I hadn't raced Bradenton 4 - 5 years when I came back 2017 this man worked there. Nicest guy at the track. Always had a unlit cigar in the side of his mouth. I think he was a Vietnam Vet, real cool guy.

Nice guy, super guy always ran the lanes test n tune.

I was called right after it happened by a guy at the track, said a cars throttle hung open and he hit the man RIP who died. I can only presume he was working the turnoff at the end of the track.

The car with the hung throttle ended up out in the tomato field.

It was Paul Major who had his throttle hang and unfortunately hit Dan. Went through the 1/8 mile traps at 207mph i believe.

I donated, if you knew the man or not, please give something for the family.

I've only raced two to three times at Bradenton, but he was always there making it run as smoothly as it could. He seemed happy and knew his job.
