Hes out cold. Thats a whopper of a fall. Anyone know what his injuries are? Concussion, obviously. But anything major?

Whaaaaat? How does one NOT get concussion from that? That must be the best helmet on earth to take that kind of abuse.

I can't say I blame him. Is he out for the season? hes crazy lucky to have not been injured.

it was a scary crash, i was at dallas stadium.

we thought he was going to get carted off.

It is possible though to get knocked out cold and not get a concussion

the fact that he stood up and then rode the lcq was really shocking, we thought for sure his night was done.

Stusmoke - He actually got back on and rode that dirtcycle in the LCQ and won.  He rode the main but crashed very hard into a bowl turn.  He is tough as hell but I sure wouldnt want to feel his pain tomorrow.

Are you serious? He made the MAIN after that? That right there is dedication. Dudes earned my respect for life.

  A  little  awkward   the way  he crashed,  but  I   don,t   think   that   is   anywhere   near  a   big crash.
