AMA Superbike rider #25 had a serious crash in Ohio. Four laps after running his best qualifying time, putting him in 3rd for the session, David Anthony high sided. The crash resulted in a severe fracture of his thigh bone, the femur. The break occurred when his Suzuki GSX-R1000 landed on his leg. He was taken to the local Emergency Room and then transferred to the Trauma Center at Akron General Hospital. He spent the night with his leg in traction because the bone was displaced, resulting in his right leg being 2 inches shorter than the left. He had Orthopedic surgery and is now recovering well. Aussie Dave has worked hard over the past three years to create his own team and has become a top Privateer. David would like to thank all of the people who have helped him achieve this and all of the people who have reached out during this tough time. He will be unable to race for the remainder of this season. His plans are for serious rehabilitation and training; to return stronger than ever. He hopes to get a ride on a team next year, allowing him to continue racing and give him the opportunity to truly showcase his riding abilities. Correspondence with David and his family can be done through his website at www.aussiedaveracing.com
