Many of you might know of my brother Buddy. He's been to most of our record attempts and is an airplane nut. You may have seen him in his Nanchang (military warbird) or his Cessna 210. He helped us swap motors in the Ack Attack at the Top 1 Shootout which helped make it possible for us to up the ante in 2 wheel racing. My brother was involved in a serious airplane crash about 8 weeks ago and is on the mend. He loves flying, loves anything fast (cars, motorcycles, airplanes) and has been there for me as long as I can remember. In the early days driving my first streamliner, Buddy bought me a new firesuit so I could be safe out there racing when no one else would. I've written a small tribute to him in my blog and it also gives an update on how he's doing.
If you get a chance, take the time to read the blog and maybe leave a comment for him to read ( I know he'll be checking in once I tell him what we did). Everyone has loved ones and I'm sure all can relate when things go bad. He's doing pretty good now, but still has a long road ahead. Here's the link:
