Karl blew me off the road on the uphill grade only to be nailed by a highway patrol car sitting near the top of the grade. What was the final story Karl? Sorry he got you. I feel lucky we made it home with no other problems. We, as a group, drove pretty conservative home. I thought 55 mph was fast enough for me today.

Glad to hear about Stuart is pretty OK. All of us were tying out best to move the car and get him out. I was shocked when he sat up and tried to climb out of the car, asking "what happened". I was walking back to my car when I saw the SUV lock the breaks and plow into to Dan and Jeff's cars. Sorry guys, I'm (we are all) so glad you were not in the car when the lady rear ended you. I was watching that lane of traffic go by at or near the speed limit. Wonder if a cell phone was in her ear?

Stuart...our whole community is pulling for a speedy recovery. You're one tough cookie. And, the AZ Cobra club members can be proud that they reacted so quickly and were able to lend life saving assistance.

Contrats to everyone.

My thoughts exactly. Stuart you ought to be in the Guinness Book of Records.
Good luck in you're recovery.

Stuarts car




Dans' CCX


Rear of SPF136

What the picture cannot show was the body flex that occured.
It appears that the body flexed at the seat level.

Hell of a day. Thank God Stuart's injuries were only what they were and that idiot in the SUV didn't kill any of the rest of us. That thing smashing into Dan's car just 2 lanes from where Pam was sitting was just surreal.
You're a great group of folks, Pam and I would hate to lose any of you.

I second that. When the Rav 4 hit Dan and Jeff's car my wife and I were maybe 50' from the front of Jeff's car helping to pick up debris from Stuarts car. What a surreal morning indeed. Glad to here Stuart is doing better. My wife and I volunteer to bring him a meal when he gets home.
I wonder what happened to the other 2 cars in front of him? Did anyone else recall 2 other cars? I wonder if they bolted..
Sorry Dan and Jeff hopefully she is well insured.

Default Back from the white light

Can anyone let us know where Stuart is? Which hospital? Is he allowed visitors? I have a need to see him to erase the picture I have in my mind of him in the car with those cables against his throat. Think I'll sleep better once I see him whole and on his way to recovery.
Thanks
Bev

I thought I heard he was in Scottsdale Osborne (Osbourn?)
By the way I feel the same way.

If you are talking about the 2 cars in front of Stuart I think Lyle was in front of him and I was in front of Lyle. Both of us and Brandon (Lyle's son, hope I got the name spelled right) where there to help push the car back.
