Chris Madden injury

[Jim11h]

Why were they there already? Doing a little quick testing before event maybe?

[Mason87]

Nope, testing isn't allowed.

It’s not uncommon at all for drivers, teams, fans, etc., to show up a couple days, or more, early, for one of the crown jewel type events. It’s a great way to just hang out and relax before it gets down to business. I wish I could do it more often.

Probably just helping Cody and his guys get everything ready

And back to topic ... hopefully this isn’t too serious. I’ve seen people come out of this same injury like it’s not a big deal, and I’ve seen it be something that takes some time. Based on the severity, he could race this weekend, or not race for a month. Here’s wishing Chris the best. He’s on one of the greatest streaks in the history of our sport. I’d hate to see it end because of something like this.

I think Scott done some testing there 6-10 weeks ago

They went straight there after the topless race last weekend

how in the world does any one fall off a golf cart ???

This could be a 7-10 day recovery time injury or several weeks recovery time depending on the severity. Let's hope for the less serious.

Crazy sh!t happens is all I gotta say.

It happens a lot more than you think.....no seatbelts, an unexpected turn by the driver and out you go.

Not sure what happened in Chris's case but golf carts , like almost anything with wheels on it can be dangerous.

[Mason87]

I flipped a couple but a lot of alcohol was involved.

Curious on the timeframe a car or cars can test before a race?

Lucas oil is 7 days before the race

So you don’t think in one weekend at Eldora or Myrtle Beach that anyone ever falls off a golf cart? Fall off, hit the wrong thing, it’s all bad.

I remember being in a high school, some poor kid I barely knew, parents house backed right up to the golf course. May or may not have been out there at midnight, or later, screwing around.
