Nick Davis’ family, Grandma & Grandpa Davis, Laurie’s Mom & Dad “the Team” suffered a tremendous lost last Friday by the racing accident that took Nick’s life.
Nick came over and sat with me at the PRO Nationals driver’s meeting. He told me that his best 500 engine burnt a couple of pistons and was sorry he wouldn’t be racing against me in the 500 capsule class later in the day. Over the last 17 years we had many conversations about Konigs, Hydros, setups and racing. He really loved to race that lay-down 500cc hydro of his and had decided to run his remaining engine in the 500 Sprint class. A couple of hours later, I watched from the sidelines Nick had gotten the number one starting position. The first race of the PRO Nationals, at the start of the first lap at the first corner this young man life was tragically ended.
With a heavy heart my wife Joyce and I send our deepest sympathy to the Davis Team.
Nick, peace. I’ll see you at the finish line……Bill
