I was about 20' from the incedent.Didn't want to post anything but since you asked.A T/S cars exhaust part,collector I think,came off during the burnout and went under his slick which launched it into a spectators leg.The guys was bleeding heavy and was eventually
put in the ambulance.Don't know if he was med evaced.The part also hit Dave LeClair,
(SS racer) and he was down and in real pain.I'll skip any more details,don't want to speculate.I'm hopeful that the fisrt guys injury looked worse than it really was.
It was nice to get out to Atco again,even just spectating.Saw Dave Thomas's 9.48 run.Beautiful car.The Joe Cieri chevy malibu was real impressive.It ran five runs between
13.06 and 13.09.And he was .018 and .033 on the tree.Us slow pokes are coming after you fast guys:>):>)
Hoping to get to Englishtown national in June.
