A few nasty wrecks this weekend across the country. Was a frew wrecks at an NMRA race as well. But the drivers walked away from that one too..

Those pics on that link make it look like even a harder lick. Wonder what happened. "I am not ashamed to confess I am ignorant of what I do not know." "It's never wrong to do the right thing"

Charles is a low budget guy and was actually depending on doing well at Houston, to continue with some other races. He is widely considered the "Godfather" of Pro/Mod and it will be a shame if he has to quit. Monte
