Does any body know the condition of bike number 72 who went down in the warm up lap of the heavyweight superbike race 3 on monday. his name is ZSOLT BENCZE
The only things I have heard so far is
QuoteLast I heard was broken neck and 2 broken vertebrae. Can feel pressure in legs but cannot move them. I talked to his team and told them to post up on CCS on any help they need.
and
QuoteI got an update last night on the way home. The racer was in surgery around 7:00pm. At that time, they were giving him a 50/50 chance at paralyzation from the waist down.
I spoke with his family Monday night and he was in surgery at the time.
I don't feel it is my place to provide information on his condition, but suffice it to say he and his family needs our thoughts and prayers.
We are with you Zsolt!
Been praying a lot for this young man. Will continue to pray and ask all that can do the same to pray hard for Zsolt.
Thoughts and prayers for him.There was also a guy that went off in T3 and hit the
tire wall on the warm up lap in race 10 Sun.I hope he is ok.

Guy that went off in T3 of race 10 during warm-up lap, that was my team mate. He is ok, but bike is not. We are currently rebuilding as we speak.
I wish Zolt well and a speedy recovery. I am located in Richmond, Virginia and if I can be of any help please let me know. It is terrible to see a fellow racer having to fight like this. You are in my thoughts and I hope you get back very soon. Again, If I can be of any help my contact info is as follows.
