Still odd that the incident itself was not in the news. I mean how many times have your read or watched a news report with all the details minus the names until next of kin are notified. I'm still gutted over this whole thing. ya, it’s starting to break now.

It has now been reported locally. My condolences to his family and friends. For the attackers, I call for cold vengeance.

True fans such as yourself know that it is truly the teams and its members that are the pulse of the sport. Senseless... Thank you for your reporting and the kind words. We all need to get to know the members and personalities of the Champ Car teams as soon as possible. They are needed and an important part of the entire IndyCar FAMILY. To Davey!!

The "Ultimate Fighting"/"Jackass" culture we've spawned practically begs for this kind of unmotivated violence. That it happened to one of the real gentlemen of racing makes it unimaginably heinous to me, but what's worse is that this isn't the last time we'll hear about something like this.

The whole scenario is ridiculously messed up. I'd say I'm angry then sad. What a senseless act. The guys who did this are "known" for this sort of thing. Where in the hell was the deterrent? Hello, law enforcement and judicial system. I'm talking to you. My heart goes out to his family and friends. I'm sure they are in a state of shock over this incident.

I fear for the world that my kids have to grow up in. Was there really that much difference between Davey and anyone else that goes out for a beer with their buddies? This is just so disturbing and senseless. The world can be so ugly and disgusting at times. I fear for the world that my kids have to grow up in.

When I first heard about it this morning I was just speechless for about a half hour. I knew I had to write something, but the words were just stuck. So not fair... but then life hardly ever is.

I just don't get how anyone can think that sort of thing is fun. I noticed Trackforum had a thread about this also, but they to have removed it.
