Just came from the caspian hillclimb. Pretty back accident. One of the sleds rolled over, throttle stuck and the sled when flying into the pit side of the hill. Three hurt, not sure how bad yet......

One girl had to have surgery, broken fibia and tibia...not cool. I did hear the surgery went well though and that she is also doing good.

When the sled rolled, the tether got wrapped up in the handlebars and ripped the loop off of the guys jacket...all things considerd I was relived that's all that happened. When you see a unmanned sled with a throttle stuck wide open heading at a crowd of people you imediatly fear the worst and then when I saw the girl get hit and fly up in the air I was almost shaking. SUPER glad there was no life threatening injuries...that day could have ended MUCH worse than it did
