I just got word that a car ran into the crowd at the Madison unlimited races today, just before the Governor's Cup race. 11 people were injured - including the driver who's car ended up 20 feet into the river. The race was then cancelled.

The wife of a long time Madison race staffer was hit - (Jean Johnson, wife of Dave) she is undergoing surgery for a ruptured spleen. She's also got several broken bones. Please keep her in your prayers, along with the other injured.

From what I've read, the other injured do not have life threatening injuries, which is a miracle considering the car was travelling at 50-70 mph when it ran through the barricades and into the crowd .

You can keep up with Jean's condition over at the Vintage site:
