Anyone know how/why the fella crashed ?

Someone I know in the family wasn't there and would like to know how it happened. Apparently Carl doesn't remember ..

Any help here would be great.

Cheers.

None of us flaggies/helpers actually saw the accident happen. We couuldn't understand how it happened either.

Hopefully someone from either the group that was riding or someone that was watching saw it happen.

I think so. Manfield on Sunday, may 21st ?

It's my understanding he is alive and conscious at least, I don't KNOW further than that.. I'd assume he's ok though, my buddy didn't seem too upset.

Cheers Bruva. I've since seen an update from Paula on FB. Get well soon Carl.

i was marshalling on turn 2.. watching splash and turned around to see him lying on the side of the track on the inside of the corner. Still cant figure out how he got there but it happened real fast.

We are all thinking of him at this time. I can't imagine how hard it is for him, and his family at the moment, especially with memory loss. Just wishing him the best possibly recovery and looking forward to seeing him when he gets home.
