Very sorry to hear about the passing of Dick Davidson (V8 Coopman)

His wealth of knowledge and the generous way he shared it with the V8 community will be sorely missed.

My condolences to his friends and family.

Kirk

Sorry to hear about V8COOPMAN's passing, sadly it's becoming all to frequent to be receiving this type of news. My condolences to his family and friends and "we" also lost. In our case a source of information, salty or not, he tried to help and he made you think. Thank you to him for sharing with us, I will miss seeing his posts. LouB

Bloody hell, thats sad news for sure. One always knew that he knew what he was talking about. A very knowledgable man who was always willing to share that knowledge. He was always on here and now will be very much missed. RIP COOP. Regards, Kevin.
