I did it again.
Thanks to social media, Facebook and YouTube, news travels super fast so rather than not saying anything, I figure I would post about it.
In Sweden 8 years ago when I crashed and 7 years since my crash in Japan, the scope of news didn’t travel very far. Unlike this time which was in a blink of an eye. I have received a lot of emails from people concerned and saying not to worry. Thank you very much.
This was my second time going upside down. As the Dragster is turned over and I’m hanging upside down by the seat belt, I could only think, “Oh man, I did it again, Dumb!”
The medics came quickly to the scene and got me into the ambulance real fast. They took me to a medical facility on the course area to check me out. There was nothing wrong to report so they let me go.
Thank you to everyone at Chimay Race Track and thank you for your concerns about me and the Dragster.
Right after this photo is when it happened.
Inside the ambulance
Narashino Automotive’s Mr. Oba saved the day by being there to provide service.
With a lot of assistance from people in the area, we were able to get it moving again.
I received the Bad Luck Award.
I wasn’t injured so it wasn’t Bad Luck,
it was Good Luck.
MOONEYES PICK!
After it was repaired, the Dragster was pushed into this garage and we were done.
