He sure will be missed much like HSV are already missing Crenno.
I hope the baton left by HJ is taken up by someone as good if not better.

Good interview with David there. Makes me wonder now how much effort FPV will be putting into future V8 development.

Very nice interview. Lets hope that FPV don't steer off the track after getting such a lead in the market.

I like in the background the Ford poster with Lion Tamer on it at the beginning of the interview.
 : Very good interview and good luck for the future David.
