Many of you know Jim McCorstin from here in Pelham. Jim has been a club member for the last several years and is an avid rider. Unfortunately during a track day session at Barber this past weekend, Jim was involved in a crash in the museum turn. He was transferred to UAB from Shelby for further treatment and possible surgery on his elbow.He has a broken collar bone in addition. Please keep Jim in your thoughts and prayers as he recovers.

Thanks for the update Vance. Low siding is better that a high side lift off over the handle bars.
