The Incident

Hot laps went well. Qualifying heat went well. Then the incident. Two cars criss crossing the track leave Randy no where to go. He is momentarily knocked out, the engine fries, and the car is wrecked.









You can see in the above photos that there was damage to the car, but most striking to me is the halo, added only that afternoon is collapsed, but likely saved his life. Glory to God.



A trip to the hospital, a concussion, and a wrecked car. Everyone else involved in the accident is fine, but their cars, too, are wrecked. It was the last race date of the season, so we have all winter to rebuild. Rebuild, we do.



Grandson, Ben, sits in the stipped-down car. Re-building has begun.
