About David   

History
In 1997, David purchased a Spec Racer Ford, the yellow and red Computers Plus Number 83 and taught himself how to work on the car and perform race setups. His initial starts were quite good. In 1998, he posted six, top ten finishes, and in 1999, the number rose to nine, including a second place podium finish.

Years 2000 and 2001 proved more difficult. At times, it seemed David's Computers Plus SRF had a large target painted on its side. 

While David managed six top ten finishes in 2000, and nine top tens in 2001, there were also a fair number of DNFs.  

Including a particularly harrowing incident at Brainerd International Raceway...coming out of turn number 2 with his foot flat on floor, David noticed a deer standing alongside of the track. The deer chose that moment to dash across the track and straight into the path of David's car. While the crash was horrific, David was not injured. The deer was not so lucky.

At the track, David is well known for his sense of humor and willingness to assist other drivers-both mechanically and with racing tips. His recent success has come through hard work and dedication to the sport.

David owns Computers Plus, a computer retail and service business, in Bloomington, Minnesota.
