Steve, I am very, very sorry to hear that David has lost his battle with cancer, he well be sorely missed, my condolences to you and all his family.
Your right he was a bit crazy, but a really lovely man, I worked for him and raced with him for a year all over Europe, it was great fun and I have really good memories of that year !!!!!.......
