For those interested, I sufferred a broken left collarbone during the second race on Sunday.

Xrays showed about 35mm piece of bone snapped off the end of my collarbone.

Doc says nothing they can do but wait and see how it heals, it may not even grow back together due to the piece moving around loose.

So they sent me home with a collar and cuff sling and pain killers, I will probably be out of action for 6 + weeks until it heals enough to support my shoulder without too much pain.

WHOOPS........ :(

Doooooooohhhhhh!!!!

Top effort Dukey, I know you don't do things by halves. :wink:

Hope it mends pronto, and your back in the race scene as soon as possible!!!
6+ weeks??? Thats Adelaide Kite festival and buggy races :shock:

I am just glad that I did not take out the 4.2 for the second race. Otherwise I might have been joining you at the quacks.

Interesting comment Justin.
In the race scene in Europe they have banned seat belts.
Why, not to sure. Either unfair advantage or safty aspect.

First Ross Takes himself out, now Dukey.
I will be left with no one to race!!! I think you willl have to call me Scotty from now on??

Dukey, I can only guess that you are copping a lovely tounge lashing from Tracy too!! :lol:
Get well soon!!!
