Worst Drag Week ever for the Gebhart's.

I will let Billy tell the story but this is only part of it, albeit the worse part.

At least it was finished up with a new grandchild.

Well guys...
Drag Week kicked us square in the teeth this year. Hard.

I'm reminded of the Bettenhausen family that lost so much at Indy, but could never shake the love affair they had for the 500.

I don't hate the event...not even a little bit.
This year once again provided awesome memories that will last a lifetime...but at a price that was very steep and is still being tabulated.

Just walked in the house, got a shower and am off to bed.

Hoping your brother comes thru with no ill effects. Glad your dad will be ok. Cars come
and go. Family and friends are what's important. Congratulations on the new grand baby!

I don't know anyone involved but hope everyone makes a full recovery. The guy that has multiple broken vertebra and no signs of paralysis must be living right.

One of the Mopar Front Wheel Mafias Turbo,manual tranny Caravans was rear ended was the only other incident I heard.There were a few people who went for a spin in the rain but no damage other than soiled underwear.

All of them had some form of carnage... I know what happened to all of them, but it's Billy's story to tell.
