I was told that the last owner of Signature was a guy named Mike Becall did he take over the company after Tommy Adams was killed? Did you ever know this guy at all. Or what happen to the company after Tommy.

Thanks

Anyone know what happened to the Aft R U 2 Signature after the accident out east? If I recall correctly, it rolled in a turn with another Sig called Crazy Greek.

Dave was Mark in the boat at the time of the accident?

No, Dave Rutkowski was.

Just a sidebar, I think I saw somewhere else on OSO recently that the Crazy Greek guys just bought the old Daddy Cool Cig.

Here another Signature Lady L,this was for sale for some time now, don't know if it sold. Was this raced under any other name ???
