Monday May 7th 6:30pm

Wade is home from the hospital. He was diagnosed with a fractured sternum this morning and
still suffers from a pretty stout headache caused by the concussion. Recliner time and good
night's rest in his own bed should speed his recovery.

Got the phone call from Wade about 3:30 est, today
he asked me "how am I doing"
I replied, "heck never mine me, how are you and good to hear from ya"
after speaking to him for a short while, he seemed to be ok, but we all know the toll this takes on a driver, mentally, physically and financailly (I know not a good speller) but the main thing he has a positive attitude that he will be back sometime this summer behind the wheel of another 7s..........

I was asked on his behalf to see if anyone has a video, at this point nothing has come forward, but if you do please do so.

He honestly thinks something went wrong with car going down the back straight, it shot right and it all went down from there. Driver Nick Hale also said he was behind him and he said the car just shot right, with no sign of anything.
I asked Wade if he recalls the tumble, oh ya I remember he said, I asked about what he recalls after that, he said he rememebers after it stopped tumbling that he reached up to turn the fuel off, then the lights went out, he recalls hearing/seeing guys around the car helping to get him out.
I asked one more question, how about the helicopter ride..........? there were many more questions, but.........

Lets say, he will try to be there Sat to fill everyone in on his progress and hear the rest of the story........thru an interview with us at the speedway,
Thanks Wade, Clay County Speedway fans will love to see ya Saturday, NO PRESSURE!

Thank You Clay County Speedway Fans. From phone call to donations, you have shown a ton of support! Can't wait to get back behind the wheel(probably next season), it sure is hard to sit and watch!

Thank You Everyone,
Wade Seiler
