I got an email from Starrbright on some good reading. Every so often David does a Diary on Frontstretch.com about his races and sometimes anything else that is going on in his life.
David Starr Driver Diary: Back in the Saddle at Red Horse Racing (http://www.frontstretch.com/dstarr/14649/)

David Starr · Friday February 22, 2008



It was a very busy off-season for me. Along with reacquainting myself with my old team and all the testing we did for the 2008 season, I got married to my beautiful bride, Kim, and went on an amazing honeymoon. It was absolutely gorgeous! Considering that I don’t ever get a chance to slow down, it was good to finally do that. As much as we would have loved to stay, we had to come back home and head to Daytona.
Before I talk about Daytona, you may notice a sticker on the b-post of our No. 11 Toyota Tundra this season. We will be honoring our teammate, co-hauler driver, Cornell Speas, who passed away this month of a heart attack at age 46. I didn’t know him real well, but I talked to him some last year a couple of times and I visited with him for about an hour at New Hampshire, and he was an extremely pleasant guy. When I moved back over to Red Horse Racing, his best friend, who is the other truck driver Willie Divel, told me how it was Cornell’s dream to be able to drive a hauler for a NASCAR team. It gives me a little peace to know that he got to live his dream before he passed. It’s sad because he was so young, and you realize how precious life is when things like that happen to people around you. It lets you know how fragile life is and how it can end at any minute. So we are honoring him this season with a memorial sticker and hopefully we’ll have a guardian angel looking over us.
