Title: Super pro crash
Post by: Excavator on July 11, 2011, 04:49:42 PM
One of our local racers lost it at 130 mph, broken arm, beat and bruised all over. The funny car cage held up well.

If it's a Funny Car, what does it have to do with bikes? And the link doesn't show the crash as far as I can tell.

Not a funny car but a super pro with a funny car cage.

It was a bike race night but cars were running also.

That's a lot of expensive scrap lying around there. How's the driver?

I didn't see anything that said it was a bike. Did I miss it?

She will be ok, has a broken arm, had to have an arterial graft, some burns, shoulder and elbow surgery to come.

Throttle hung open is what I understand. It was the track owner's wife driving.

These are very good people and could use some prayers for her recovery.
