I just saw an update on Facebook from his tire sponsor Roger Kraus racing:
Posted by Brandon K: "Just saw a good friend of mine,Randy Mackintosh do 7 end over end in his race car. My prayers are out there for him and his family. It was one of the worst crashes I have ever seen. He was medavacked out. Hope things go your way Randy." If I hear anything else Ill do my best to keep everyone updated, sorry to leave a cliff hanger. I read it and my heart dropped and I'm sitting here stunned. I know a lot of people here know Randy, this is why I'm posting. Update: 2 broken ribs, broken clavicle and a broken wrist. Clavicle had surgery on it and it went good.

We were both holding our fingers and toes crossed up here Randy! It feels sooo much better now that we can relax knowing that you're going to mend.
I JUST got back in the car after fighting three years to save my left eyesight. Finally found a professor at UBC that deflated my eyeball, sucked all the juice out, scraped the crap off the retina, and reinflated it! I spent weeks looking through a strange artificial horizon until it refilled with fluid. Best part is I now have binocular vison and almost 20/20 again! They CAN do miracles these days! Last weekend's first race on my newly restored licence was hard to feel anything but thankful for, despite tossing the driveshaft at 110 mph while leading! You will get to do this again too! All the best! |

I threaded the needle between the tumbing ds and coasting Randy, and loaned him my spare for the race. This post has been edited by Blainefab: Apr 25 2011, 06:39 PM |

HAHA...thanks for the memories Alan! |
