Hi guys I'm the "asspackee" in this thread, just getting around to posting...just want to start off by saying I have no hard feelings toward Gu, he called and we talked about it and I think we both could have made different decisions and its just one of those race incidents that I realize can and do happen...I'm glad we werent both hurt...I'm still hurting pretty bad the hip is the worst, the leg doesnt really hurt that bad, so hopefully it stays that way.  I disloacated my left thumb real bad as well as pulled a tendon or muscle in my right elbow which is painful at times.  I got to the Dr. thursday to see what is next.  The bike isnt as bad as it could have been, i think I broke its fall..;) 

I just wish I wasnt doing so good and it woulldnt have been such and big deal.  I'll probably get to see a first place points position in one of the classes and watch it go lower and lower in the standings each race weekend. :(  oh well it did make for some kick ass pics and one hell of a story..depending on how i heal i may just pack it up and call it a good go at a first AM season, and get back into fishing or something.  Or who knows maybe sandbag it next year and win a championship. :)

Aaron - Sorry Dave and I didn't get up to see you..... I'm glad your doing as well as you are..... You'll heal up quick -

Take this stuff - Really - it helped me heal up broken bones faster then you can blink an eye.... Dave told me to try it and he has used it with really good results....

You'll be back racing - You won't be able to live with yourself if your always asking yourself "Just how far could I have gone"?

When I broke my neck racing Supercross - I thought I was done too.... Took a year off to heal - and then started Roadracing - cause I couldn't come to terms with living a life without racing - or being a NORMAL person for lack of better words....

Hope to see you soon man - Keep the infection away and you'll be good to go in no time :)

Aaron, You better get back out there as we know Travis will be soon and it just wouldn't be the same only having 1 of the 2! Besides I need someone to chase around and help in the pits after I crash.

Good to hear from ya Aaron. Take the next year off to do track days and get ridiculously fast, then sandbag it and petition to stay amateur for 2010 and sweep the overall championship!

We racers aren't the smartest breed of human are we?

Well I get to go back to the cutting board in the morning, it appears old St. Nicholas surgons dont have a clue, or just dont give shit...The gash from the bone wasnt closed up enough and when my doc (who fixed my ankles from 05)...Dr. Horton from KU med saw it, his words were "so what the hell is this"  so he is going to fix that and then in a month straighten my leg since its crooked as hell now...so anyway, I'm a bit irriateted at the moment, so wish mw luck

[Scotty Ryan]

Dude??? WTF???

[JonGu]

Ouch... leg straightening? That sounds painful... yikes. Maybe this will cheer you up? Another one for the scrapbook lol
