Title: Mid-Ohio Thanks
Post by: RoyHefner on September 15, 2009, 11:04:17 AM
I'd like to say thank you to all of you who helped me out after my crash at Mid-Ohio this past weekend!  For those of you who don't know, I took a bit of a spill during practice on Friday afternoon, resulting in an ambulance ride to the hospital, a broken collar bone, and a couple other bumps and bruises.

Thanks to all of you that offered help and condolences throughout the weekend.  In particular, many thanks to the corner workers and ambulance crew that took care of me at the scene, Hernan Martinez and Paul Gray for waiting with me at the hospital, Sam Gaige for his eyewitness report (I don't remember the crash), and Jim and Nancy Berard for getting me back home.

It's a great bunch of folks that participate in this sport, and it's certainly reassuring to know that, when things go wrong, there's never a shortage of offers of assistance, from friends and strangers alike!

Thanks again, everyone, for all the help, and also congrats to all the racers who kicked ass at Mid-Ohio!

Actually, what happened is that I needed a pair of warmers for BHF.
I oiled Roy's tires so now I can borrow them.  :biggrin:

It's good that he can't remember why he went down.  ::)
