It was a rough ride for Charles for sure.  Came off in turn one and took a mower to the hip/rear end in the middle of the turn.  He was walking/limping pretty hard, said his butt hurt.  I bet it did from what I saw.  Praying nothing is broken, he's a heck of a driver.
You never win a race by focusing on one aspect of the race!  Motor isn't everything, but you better have a good one!  Chassis too!  But remember, a driver can take a slow machine and make it faster!  I may not have/be the best of any of these but I'm trying!

I hope he is ok. I was the driver that flipped in the second heat. The Red Baron Racing mower. Got x-rayed today. Got fractured scapula, (shoulder blade). My season is done. Thanks to all at track that asked me how I was.

I did hear today that Charles has a broken tail bone. I know that's painful, had a bruised one in the past.

Charles is doing ok, he shattered his tail bone,and  He's going to move slow for a while. Thank you Guy's for all your prayers.
