Default Gone to soon!

This weekend, we lost the friendliest man in RC Motor Racing.

Most of the RC drivers that have been around for ten years or more knew him as 'Big Friendly Dave' . . .

I received a call Sunday morning to learn of the tragic loss of Mr David Scott.

I first met Big Friendly at Condell Park and was lucky enough to spend time with Dave and the Hurstville crew every Friday Night back in the day.

As details come to hand of the Funeral arrangements, I'm sure there will be many in the Australian RC community that will want to attend so they can say their farewell to Mr David Scott, and pay their respect to his Family.

Big Friendly . . . You will be missed, but never forgotten, my friend.

Rest In Peace

Had a sad call from Matt Dall on Sunday informing of this tragic news.

Big Friendly was a great guy, spent a fair bit of racing time together at Hurstville then the old eastern creek track.

Best wishes to his family and those closest to him

For many years Big Friendly was my RC Racing partner in crime, he drove me to race tracks all over the place and often gave up his own racing to be the best pit man i ever had. Many of my best and funniest memories in RC racing involved Dave.


Rest in Peace Dave, we will never forget you.

Default Very Sad News

Big Freindly Dave was easily one of the nicest guys i've ever met, in RC or life. A true gentleman.

Default BFG

Never has there been a more apt name as Big Friendly Dave, he will be sorely missed as he was the BFG of RC racing.

Rest in Peace
