First mention.

"...From Thumper Talk: 113X is a late entry Mexican team...14:42 patient loaded in to the chopper now..."

Scroll forward and there might be more; gotta go.

I like that guy's taste in firearms. Same ammo for his sidearm and submachinegun.

Sounds like he is stable but in serious condition with multiple fractures and in a coma with swelling on the brain. They reported that he was hit head on by another vehicle of some drunk bystanders who thought it would be "fun" to drive on the course.

So sad...
