Talked to David Dunbar over the weekend while he was (as usual) bustin butt to dyno everyone's trucks. He said this was his last event (SDX '11). I guess he is retiring from the sport and already sold his dyno to Garmon.
I for one am sad to see him go. Always friendly, always professional - and VERY knowledgable on these trucks more than he let on - I watched him numerous times look at a dyno graph and and know what had been dfone to a truck - timing, turbo, pump, etc - that always amazed me.
He was around from the very beginning of things, and for those who don't know, jumped in with his own money to found a new sanctioning body for all of us when he was tired of seeing guys get cheated by the (at the time) existing system.
Through all the events over all the years, I never once even HEARD OF him belittling someone's truck, hurting someone's truck, or not getting a good number out of it.
Just an all around great guy, and I for one am sad to see him go. Best wishes to him and his family down on the farm. It's been a good run.
