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.

Gorilla tape will get that done for you. Just make sure you have it placed where you want it before pressing it onto the body work. That looks cool, but you'll probably want to 'knife-edge' the leading edges of those supports. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/cool2.gif)

Hopefully getting near the END of this thread!

I just got the photos that someone took from the tower of the incident. These are the most interesting:

And the REALLY scary one:

I don't have the ability to clean those photos up if I zoom in on them too much. If anybody has the tools to do so, please send me the pics......

I haven't been on the board in a long time since I sold my car and picked up the Miata. Glad to hear you are ok, and a new racecar is being built!

You can't really make pixels that aren't there.

Are these your originals?

Yeah, I thought so. They are second hand cell phone pics, so I don't have too much control over them. I will scare them up after the weekend....heading to ALMS at Laguna tomorrow!

What....you mean they don't really use flashlights IN BROAD DAYLIGHT because they can't turn on a light or open drapes????? (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)
