Micheal Kirup if my memory serves me correctly.

Had a bit of the old texty texty with Tony earlier. Anyone else you'd think they'd had a bash on the head, but with it being Tony he sounded his usual self. He's struggling to get a happy ending with his bed baths apparently!

Glad the mad f**ker is still with us and it wasn't a lot worse.

Still up for the side car racing with me then Chris

Get well soon Tony you mad c**t

[andrewsmith]

Haha
Thats sound like Tony.

Toby, get your ACU and have a go! So bloody glad I didn't try a F1, the F2 at half place was mental enough

Too f***in right.
It's my liver that might need a talking to about it's commitment to race meets.

Mad Tony Update...

There's still a glimmer in his eye but he's not allowed to laugh (Sorry but thats impossible)

So, He's got 9 broken ribs, 6 on the left side and 3 on the right. He has snapped the ball of his arm in the socket and also split the ball in two so they've pinned it all together and he should be looking normal shaped in about 12 weeks!

The man is a trojan and is obviously ina lot of pain!.

They'd done 25 or so laps and were drifting the outfit everywhere with it spinning very controllable around the track. They weren't going daft but drifting around the left on the back straight and the rear wheel hit a dry patch and the outfit siddenly high sided. Tony was thrown off and Michael ended up under it and sliding with it on top.

The options, as no one actually saw it are
1) Th initial flip broke Tony's ribs and the impact broke his shoulder.
2) Tony was ran over by the outfit after it flipped
3) The Sidecar bounced and landed on him

Michael was stuck under the unit but was just lightly bruised.

Tony got the full blues and twos and the track ambulance didn't take him to hospital.

He's faring up well but obviously not his former self. Hoefully he'll be out of hospital and home in about a week or so.

Get well soon mate!
