Team Dawgpound crashed in IOM TT practice

For those that have not heard...

"The American sidecar crew of Doug Dano and James Cornell
crashed at May Hill, Ramsey. Dano was said to be 'stable' while
Cornell's condition was described as serious."

Sarah and I got a call at 3:30 AM from someone on the Isle who
saw the crash...

He says that Doug and James were out on the very first marshall
led sighting lap. The group went around a corner, and for some reason
the rig did not turn and they went off course. Doug and James went
headfirst into a brick wall at speed. When the rig came back down it
landed on top of them both.

Sarah and I spoke to the hospital trying the 'We're relatives' bit, and
all they would say is that Doug was resting and James was in critical
condition.

Holy crap. I know James. The worst things happen to the nicest
people. Please keep us updated, Mike.

 

It's been quite some time now... James is still in a coma, still over
on the
Isle at Nobels. He's showing some signs of response, so our hopes are
still up he'll pull through this yet...

Thanks for the update, Mike. I'm sending good thoughts his way.
