Hello all. Thought I'd provide a quick update. First of all a massive THANK YOU to everyone who took the Time to message and call. I truly felt the love of the Speedway Family and am blessed to be part of it. I have just come out surgery to close two wounds on my head. All went well. I do have small breaks to my C2 and C3 vertebra and will be in a neck bracelet for about 12 weeks but again everything will be fine. Great news... And for no doubt, Craig... Maybe those who requested refunds can now get them sent to stop them worrying.....? Bless them.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JanAndersen 822 Posted August 5, 2023 Really great to hear he’s on the mend. Relief all round and hopefully Cookie can relax a little more as I bet he’s been on edge to say the least. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gazc 7,098 Posted August 5, 2023 (edited) Whilst the injuries are not as severe as they could have been he must have got a real scare at the time. Great news he is on the mend, best wishes to him. Edited August 5, 2023 by Gazc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted August 5, 2023 (edited) Fabulous news he's on the mend, albeit 3+ months. The main thing is he will fully recover. Couldn’t really have hoped for better news. Edited August 5, 2023 by Steve Shovlar Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
foreverblue 6,096 Posted August 5, 2023 Great news, so pleased for him and his family , very worrying time for them but although a long time for him to heal completely, he will make a full recovery which is fantastic news. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Teromaafan 586 Posted August 5, 2023 This guy was just operating a camera and this happened. What a relief. All the best Pete. A lot of the posts on this forum platform discuss crap (I’m as guilty as anybody) about subjects the outside world neither know or care about. But when it comes to something that is more important than the sport (health), it is great to read poster’s concerns for Pete’s welfare. Should add Cookie into that too. Sounds like Pete needs to be patient and we will all no doubt continue to post garbage relating to the minority sport we love. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
