He suffered a collapsed lung and 5 broken ribs, as far as we know. Looks like he will be ok but his car, 'Sick HP' is no more.
Keep Steve in your thoughts as he recovers,
thanks

At least no one else was involved and there was no passenger as the roof was crushed. I think his roll bar helped save his life. Everyone need to be careful with that much power, It can get away from you very quickly. Hopefully he will back on the forum with updates in a couple of days.

I'm glad to see he is still with us and that he had a roll bar in that car. The NCCA guys will be there on Monday to pay a visit.
Get better my friend.

Chase them nurses!

Back from the hospital, Steve is currently at University Hospital on the 11th floor. He's in the OR recovery room. The had to repair a ruptured diaphram, he also had 5 broken ribs and a collapsed lung. They've inserted a tube through his nose to help his lung. Spoke to him for about 5 minutes as that's all they would allow. He realizes how lucky he is to still be with us and hopes to be up and about soon. The hospital is full so he's waiting on a room.
Haven't seen what's left of his car yet I've been told it's pretty bent up. We'll keep him in our thoughts and prayers for a speedy recovery.

Spoke with Larry (Cozmo a little while ago and filled him in. I'm sure Steve can't wait to see some more friendly faces tomorrow.

That is the same shirt that he was wearing last night when he wrecked. The EMS guys cut it off his body. Steve is in good spirits and is doing well. If anybody need hospital information, Send me a pm.
