We are extremely sadded to hear of Chad's death. I will always remember Chad as that super friendly guy with the huge grin coming over to our pits to see if we needed any help or to just say hi. The racing community is small in instances such as this, it hurts all of our hearts when a racer dies on the track. Best wishes to his family, our thoughts are with them.

Horrible news...my thoughts go out to the McDaniel family.

I received an email from Davey Ray's sister. Apparently he left the hospital last night after being treated for a broken kneecap, so at least we can be thankful that his injuries were relatively moderate.

I wrote an obituary for Chad McDaniel for Examiner.com. BestGas, I used your post as an example of the type of statements people are making about him today: a positive guy always will to help people. If you have a problem with it, please let me know and I can remove your quote.

I don't know Chad but I am very sad for him and his entire family and crew. Words are so inadequate!
My prayers are with them all!

A sad day in dirt racing. My deepest sympathy and prayers go to the McDaniel family...

I'm terribly saddened to hear of Chad's passing. My prayers go out to his surviving family.
