That's horrible, I hope he recovers. That man truly is a
genius when it comes to engines.

Unhappy

"Hes in a coma, lost all of his teeth, has brain swelling, a punctured lung, and he broke his neck. Very sad day for the racing world."

Wow... that's terrible. He was just on some hot rod TV show over the weekend

Hope he pulls through and doesn't lose any of his dedication to the sport thanks to this...

I saw him recently at Sears Point (he was furiously replacing a transmission.. lol). That cavalier is CRAZY. I hope he pulls through -- it would be awfull for his family

Does he have any kids?

Update: This was posted by a guy that works for the company that makes/sells HANS devices.

Quote:
I talked to Tom Gideon, Head of GM Racing's Safety program...John Lingenfelter was not wearing his HANS..He has a broken C6 Vert. Punctured lung, and was not breathing at the scene...This was a terrible wreck...They jump started him and had to induce a coma to keep him alive..He is currently at Pomona Valley hospital in Pomona CA...

I ask of all members on the board here to say a prayer for him and his family...They are good people, and this is a tragedy indeed.... :sad:
And an update on the NHRA website:
http://www.nhrasportcompact.com/2002/news/102801.html


PS: I refrain from posting a link to the board that was posted at. The members there are a little bit... uhhh... "harsh".... and many of them make fun of all imports. Knowing how some members of this board get very very upset about their cars being made fun of.... I'm not leading them into a firefight over there

Only John could put in two huge Garretts in a Z06 and have it beat a Stage 4 911.

Prayers are with him.

it seems that for PR purposes the NHRA is very much downplaying this event. Still a tragedy.
