Prayers for this family during this hard time. This saddens me to see something like this and what his wife and children went through. I had an incident in 2004 at Red Hill in 2004 when I was hit dead in the tail tank on a red flag by a guy that wasn't paying attention to the lights or flagman, or 20 stopped cars and track. Like this gentleman my wife and young children were in the crowd right in front of the burning car with me knocked out in it. Thankfully track owner Jim Mills along with Jon Nicoson heroically braved the flames and suppressed the fire to minimize my injuries. I was wearing and new triple layer suit and nomes long underwear, hood sock, etc. RACERS DON'T RACE WITHOUT A QUALITY SUIT AND LONG UNDERWEAR, YES IT'S HOT, IT IS WORTH IT! wives, girlfriends, family, crews don't let your driver race without all the available safety equipment.
