Dave Branstetter, Bonneville enthusiast and participant since 2009, passed away last Friday at his home in New Mexico.

He put his red Camaro in the 150 Club at World of Speed last month after a tech issue prevented him from running /CPRO.

A good friend, good man and all around good guy, he will be missed.

GodsSpeed Dave!

Just added to the USFRA website - http://www.saltflats.com/WOS_2011%20Pix_2.htm - last picture, bottom left, 119 Camaro.

This was his last pass ever in a racecar.




On this same subject, would anyone have contact information for Greg Wisler? He drove a /GALT (white?) Camaro at World of Speed.

Thanks,
DonS

Don, I'm real sorry to hear about the passing of your friend!
