No paralysis, loss of feeling or movement to extremities though, thank God! DAD: Sore this morning, complaining of a bruised rib. Cut on head didn't require stitches. RACHAEL: 9LB 8 0Z Brooklyn Dallas was delivered by c-section about an hour ago. Mom and baby resting in good health DALE: The effects of crashing his Duster have passed, and he is busy trying to recover James' Challenger at the moment. Me: Just got passed outside of Grants NM by Will McDougle of KrooKid Photography on his way back to Tucson. Still 5 or 6 hours to the house! The support from our Drag Week Family has been tremendous, thanks so much!

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.
