From Motter Motorsports
Dave Blaney, who was injured in a World of Outlaws qualifying accident at Eldora Speedway last night, is very sore today and is recovering from contact with the Eldora wall and subsequent violent tumbles.
Blaney was taken to a local Ohio hospital where CT scans revealed no breaks or fractures. Though initially expected to be admitted to the hospital for overnight
observation, he was instead released about 11:30 p.m.
The Motter Equpment Mohawk Northeast Beltline Body Shop team and Blaney will begin their drive back to the teamโs headquarters in Charlotte this afternoon and will not race at Eldora tonight.
โDave took a hard hit last night and weโre thankful that he wasnโt seriously injured,โ said team owner Dan Motter. โIt will take a little time to get through the bumps and bruises. Of course Daveโs health is foremost.
โAgain, we want to thank fans, friends and media for their concern and the flood of well wishes.โ
The next scheduled race for Blaney and the Motter team is the World of Outlaws Gettysburg Clash in Abbottstown, Pa. May 18.
