OKEMO crashes...Butch OK, but Blazer?

Post by Mr2 »

Not sure if the word got around, but it's unlikely Butch King will be at Duryea. Butch ran a time of 2:22. Then on his second run went off at the last turn in 4th gear. He has an in-car video of the incident. He attributes his good fortune to his "neck-restraint" from G-Force.
Here are some pics:

Also this Peugeot 505 took a roll driven by Arlo Cota's son, Nick.

It is good to see Butch standing beside his wounded steed, appearing no worse from the incident.
Butch, what will be your next creation?

BUTCH!!!!!!

Holy cow. Glad to hear you're ok. Were you talking on your cell phone or driving with 1 hand? I know it wasn't a PHA event but maybe Jenn needs to talk to you!

Very sorry to hear about the blazer. It certainly explains why you are listed as 'cancelled'. Hopefully we will see you soon.
RIP Joe, my friend.

Must go faster!!!!
