We were racing the final round of the Riderz Cup series today, and half a lap into the first moto, my friend Tristan (age 15) went around a fellow rider on a triple and his dad was in the air over him, and ended up landing on top of him. Last news we received from the emergency room was that he is in the hospital with a possibly lacerated kidney and liver. We need to band together for a fellow rider down. Will update with conditions later. Thank you! :'(

OMG! Courtney I'm so sorry to hear that for your friend and his family. I can't imagine how his dad must feel. Prayers being sent and I'll keep 'em going out!
I'll pray that he has a full, speedy recovery, and my prayers go out to his family and friends as well. You never want to read things like this, but unfortunatly injury isnt hard to come by in this sport. It's a risk we take to do what we love.
thank you, i am about to call his sister to see if i can find out anymore, ill keep you posted
done
UPDATE!
Just got off the phone with his sister, and after more tests from the hospital, she told me that he is doing fine ;D He is just REALLY badly bruised and banged up. Thank god. thanks again ~court
