I know I don't post here much but I've watched every Cup race for about the last 5 years and a lot of O'Reilly and Trucks. This ****ing sucks. This has shaken me just as much as Kobe's death. Life is so fragile man, we take it for granted every day. Just doesn't seem real.

TIFWIW, my sister is friends with someone in FB (I know) that works at the Kingsport Speedway and posted that his Nascar sources are saying this was tension pneumothorax. Given his recent issues, it does make a lot of sense if that is in fact what it was. But take it with huge grain of salt.

What does this that fast? Meningitis?

My initial reaction was heart attack but I found out he had sinus issues a couple of weeks ago with a cough and sinus infection at Watkins Glen I think it probably went to pneumonia and wasn't caught in time.

He won the first race I ever attended. It was the day before my birthday. That’s a piece of the Green Flag they used for the race.
