Damon Buckmaster, Shawn Higbee and Jerry Wood were each taken to Halifax Medical Center after crashes in Sunday’s Formula USA races at Daytona International Speedway. Buckmaster crashed on lap 10 of the 15-lap Superbike race, causing the race to be stopped. “Damon was the red flag,” Buckmaster’s Yamaha teammate Jason DiSalvo told Roadracingworld.com. “He highsided in turn seven. It was like black mark, then Damon was over there where that fence is (approximately 30 feet) then his bike was where that building is (another 30 feet away). It looked pretty gnarly. We’ve all had our moments there.” DiSalvo said that he rode on the same set of tires in the Superbike race that he used in the 15-lap Formula Sportbike race in order to test the endurance of the tires. He said Buckmaster may have been doing the same thing. No one on the Yamaha team knew Buckmaster’s condition at post time, but DiSalvo reported seeing him sitting up at the accident scene. Shawn Higbee crashed his new Buell XB12R in turn one of the Thunderbike final and was taken to the hospital to have a hand injury examined. Jerry Wood also crashed in the Thunderbike final, highsiding his Ducati 1000 Supersport at the exit of the International Horseshoe. Wood was seen moving immediately after the crash but was taken to the hospital. Wood’s son Jeff Wood did not know his father’s condition at the end of Sunday’s race program. In addition, Roadracingworld.com’s Chris Ulrich was involved in a chain-reaction crash in turn one at the start of the Superbike race. Ulrich suffered a mild concussion but was treated and released from the Infield Care Center Sunday. The incident was set off when Heath Small highsided exiting turn one and his bike tumbled up into the air, hitting Ulrich’s bike at steering-stem level.
