Default Re: Atco Top Dragster Crash????

Hey there! I want to let everyone know that I am 100% OK. All the safety stuff worked (including the optional poured seat and HANS, which I HIGHLY recommend). I was fine when I got out of the car and just as fine the next morning . . . I did have a sore left thumb . . . apparently that stuff about letting go of the wheel when you are crashing is important!!! A big thank you to the Atco & D1 safety crews . . . I had barely skidded to a stop when they were there and asking if I was OK. Also thanks to Dan Page for a safe race car that stood up in a high mph crash. Car is at Dan's right now . . . prolly gonna need new tubes from the motor back and a couple of rollcage tubes and 4 new wheels and tires and a new wing. Sent the motor to Stinnett for a 'checkup', but it appears to be fine. Seems that the first impact shut the master off so the engine was stopped almost immediately.

I don't have any info on Tony other than the same rumours that are being reported. Joe Sway said he 'thought' he was still in hospital on monday morning with some issues of dizziness and memory. I expect that all comes with getting knocked out. Hopefullly Tony or his crew can let us know how he is. Thanks to all the offers of help and loaner cars. I am hoping to be back for the Maple Grove points meet at the end of the month. See y'all at the races!
