Default Tracy Trouble

Well, Paul Tracy once again established a firm grip on the "Dumb A$$" award. Apparently he and some friends were out golfing when Tracy decided it might be smart to try and jump a sand trap in his cart. He ended up breaking his scapula and will miss the season finale in Mexico. I'm sure that everyone will be disappointed. Fortunately he only injured himself in this latest debacle.

That's right up there with Juan Pablo's "tennis" accident.

I know it was high up on the dumb a*& level but I still kinda like him. Maybe it's because he doesn't fight like a girl and will stand toe to toe with any wooooos driver that did not like a little bump. He'll fit in well in Nascar.

Jump a sand trap?

Sounds more like something from Jackass than from a "professional" race car driver.

IIRC, Knoxville got his ass beat pretty bad in that stunt as well.

I should have guessed that they already did something like this.
