I think I asked that question myself
It might be one of those questions better not asked

Edit: The silly pic has nothing to do with Dash's absence
(thanks for making me realize the possible inference Brent)

Retired, I heard.

I did read somewhere that it was a smart decision on his part (think that's what Kev is on about) but I have no clue why....would love to know though.

Conspiricy theories aside, boy was he a great driver.

Could be a bit difficult to get to the races if you have to rely on having to be driven to tracks.

I've been told that he and MB are leaving the industry and the state to try and earn some money. Good luck to them .

Where is he? It would seem he has been working at a stable without a licence

I tried to listen Paul but compared to the clarity of Len, Daryl was too hard to hear for a deaf coot like me - I did pick up that he has his car license back and is making a comeback to harness driving

Unfortunate news regarding a very talented and successful driver:
Warned off.

If the stories that I have heard about this issue are correct ( I wont go into details out of respect for peoples privacy) , I think the board could have handled things better. I wish him all the best, and hope that one day we can see him driving again.

Would be celebrating tonight as VCAT hearing sees him with one quarter of the fines and no disqualification or warning off but he still has to attend a HRV inquiry

Glenn said he was especially looking forward to his association with brother Daryl off the track.

"There are fun times travelling to and from meetings. You do miss the camaraderie so it will be great to have him back at whatever level he's involved," he said.

Glenn seems to forget the Supreme Court is the only thing keeping him from Disqualification
