Me, twaas recent, 5th degree seperated shoulder after getting taken out in turn 1 the start (http://racing.webcrush.com/photo_booth.asp?name=../track_photos/2004/061204/crash1_cr.jpg  I'm the guy UNDER the blue bike).  Had the doc put in a screw (post removal pic: http://racing.webcrush.com/photo_booth.asp?name=screw.jpg) through the collarbone to the shoulder to internally sling it in place.  Had it out about 3 weeks ago, is now safety wired to my triples. :D

Yep, Paul's a good guy, just doesnt race anymore.  Got spanked at Willow a lot.

QuoteSupahDave--has Greenwood told you his pinky finger story?

Bits and pieces of it....LOL!

At the FUSA race at Mid-America last year, I pulled up next to him going out to practice.  Held my hand up and did the thing you do to kids where you take both hands and move one so that it looks like you have a finger that you're detaching...

Meanwhile, he was flopping his glove around where there was no finger...LOL!

YOU SEE,WHAT ID DO IS BUILD A HOUSE WITH IT AND...... HEHE! WELL IM HAPPY HE WENT TO THE DOC,I WOULD OF BEEN KINDA SCARED TO GO INTO TURN ONE  AT OVER 100 MPH KNOWING HE ALMOST PASSED OUT AND IS NOW IN THE SAME RACE AS ME!! "I PULLED IT OUT,ITS FINE" WOULD NOT EASY MY MIND. ITS EASY TO SAY "IM A TOUGH GUY AND I WOULD HAVE GOT SOME VISE GRIPS AND RIPPED IT OUT AND HAULED A$$" BUT ATLEAST SOME RACERS THINK MORE THAN TO GO GET SOME WOOD! THANKS FOR KEEPING US SAFE!!

It feels fine. Only a little bruising and tenderness, but no pain. Thanks for asking and thanks everyone for the well wishes. Cya next month!
