Just got a call from Rod Greene, Ken is seriously injured from an accident this evening at the race at Fontana.

Re: Ken Etter injured in an accident at Fontana
Bob Mazzolini called me said Ken was in a serious top end accident. Head-on into a wall. He had to be cut out of the car and was air lifted to a local Hospital. I will fill in more details as I get them. Send all your prayers out to Ken.

Re: Ken Etter injured in an accident at Fontana
It was a very ugly sceen. The left front tire was pushed all the way back to the driver door. Ken was unconscious when I first saw him, but was conscious when they were cutting the door open. Definately a malfunction, whether it be brakes or stuck throttle, is unclear.
Please keep Ken in your thoughts.
