Justin Owen
 

Just read that he was injured at Lawrenceburg during qualifying , what exactly happened ? Hope he is okay

Being air lifted

They cancelled remainder of races for tonite!

He biked going into turn 3 during qualifying and flipped into the wall. Everyone say a prayer for him and his family and friends.

Right as soon as we walked in after paying they announced cancellation. Fire chief truck came in ahead of us lights and sirens going. There was police explorer directly in front of us no lights on though when the fire chief truck went by.

Prayers for Justin. Air lift was cancelled according to flight radar.

I checked once we walked back to car didn’t see a whirly bird in air so made me wonder

Re: Justin Owen
 

Just got home, Didn't look like he biked, look like something broke, car nosed in and violently flipped.

Praying for our track champ, His family and good friends. Just saying by the way things went down, I'll pray for the best, but expect the worst.

Also thanks to the track workers, Fire and EMT's who showed up. If something could be done, they could do it. Conner was there when the car stopped.

Don't know why I checked the broadcast, But he did bike. (Prayers for everyone) Wish Flo would remove it.

Any update? This is making me sick to my stomach just thinking about it.

Let official (Family or Usac) state the facts, No matter what, keep the family and friends in your thoughts and prayers. Everyone's just numb and even shared a few hugs before leaving the track property.

We raced mini sprints with Justin and moved to Sprint cars about the same time he did. We got out of racing in 2014 but I've tried to keep track of some of the drivers we used to run with.

So sad to hear about what happened this evening, my heart goes out to his family.

I was at Paragon a few years ago, when Justin showed up and won a thriller, by beating Brady Short at the line. So close, you didn't know until the announcer said who had officially won. Just as cool was the post-race interview and how happy and humble he was. He was giddy and still in disbelief that he had just beat a driver as good as Brady Short. I was definitely a fan of his, after that.

Remember. No updates on injured drivers until official word comes down from the family, race team or sanctioning body. No exceptions!

They acknowledged the worst with the Outlaw’s tonight

Unfortunately, USAC just made it official…RIP Justin owen

Re: Justin Owen
 

Pretty classy of WoO of including him in the missing man formation at the Jason Johnson race tonight.

Re: Justin Owen
 

Several of them raced against Justin in Boss and other events, Sheldon, and a few others. Smaller world than you would think.
