yellow roadster crashed on I 5 after the DelMar show - 04/14/10 03:34 PM
Very scary, be carefull out there....
hopefully the owner will recover from his injury's
here is some of the info from the HAMB:
we were notified that Dave Allen, current keeper of the famed Boyce Asquith hiboy was returning home from Del Mar, having left on Saturday to avoid the possible rain scheduled; somewhere near Fresno, while running on I-5, a gust of wind hit him, forcing the right rear tire off of the pavement...in an attempt to correct, and still fighting the wind, the roadster slid sideways, ending in the roadster rolling, and flipping....
Dave is in the hospital, suffered extensive damage, reportedly a broken collarbone, shoulder, ribs, as well as leg and arm damage,, with the doctors recommending amputation of his arm, which Dave's wife insisted 'no way', repair as you can..."
here is the story on the Hamb board:
