Posted via Mobile Device Keep up the good work, you just have to ignore Duke. He is just a disgruntled former racer ! lol

sorry i've never heard a word about stida? What is it who owns it?

check out www.stida.com ... They are on the racers side Duke! Give em a break

PEOPLE! I WANTED TO KNOW HOW JEFF WAS DOING! AND NOW SOMEONE COMES ON TO TELL ME ABOUT I GUESS INSURANCE? AND THAT I HAVE PISSED THEM OFF! WHY DO YOU GET SO FAR OFF THE ISSUES? ON THIS THREADS? NOT ONE PERSON TOLD ME HOW JEFF IS DOING! I GUESS NOT GOOD! THINK ABOUT IT!:checkered:

give me a break!

Based on reputable posts on other forums, I think Jeff's doing significantly better than initially feared & improving rapidly. I've seen reports that last Mon, he woke up, removed the feeding tube himself, was sitting up & able to converse, & improved enough to be flown to a hospital closer to home. Fred Rahmer was much more upbeat in his victory lane comments to fans this week than he was the week before. That's a fellow driver, talking directly to the fans, so I find it encouraging.

THANKS!:applaud:

Update: Sat night at Lincoln Speedway (~25 mi N of Jeff's hometown) the drivers went into the stands with helmets & collected $7,300 from the fans. To put that in perspective. It was the regular Sat show which pays $2500 to win the regular 410 Sprint 25L feature. Tonight's 50:50 payout was ~ $1,200. Looked like a normal Sat night crowd - maybe a little bigger because they ran Twin 20's.
Should help with the Air Evac fund & other expenses. http://www.stevekingfoundation.org/

Jeff's brother Judd (a former Sprint driver himself) took the PA & provided this update - Jeff was flown to Baltimore early Sat. He's in Sinai Med Ctr (specially qual'd to provibe the rehab he needs). It's ~ :45 min from home. Parents are pulling 12 hr shifts so he's never alone, because, Judd said, "it was touch & go a couple times last week." Judd hadn't seen him since Mon in Iowa (after Thurs crash) & sounded encouraged by the progress. Jeff's now able to communicate verbally & move around with the aid of a walker, for short periods. He remembers nothing from Iowa. He has no other physical injuries. Jeff recieved 500+ email Get Well cards via the hospitals website, from all over the US & Australia.
Sounded cautiously optimistic.

OK:applaud:

$7,300 collected for the jet. the pa. fans are in a legue of their own. there are more diehards there than anywhere. let the bashing begin....lol
