    Daison Pursley is such a talented racer. I suffered a neck injury 20 years ago and to say they are painful and difficult to come back from is an under stayement I wish him the very best.

    Glad you’re highlighting Pursley. I’ve been noticing his name a lot this year and his story is remarkable. Scary situation turned into determination and a drive to get better. Can’t write them better than that. He’s one to watch.

    I think Pursley and Sweet are related . I'm pretty sure if you go back far enough there is a connection between them and the guy from Mad Magazine .

    If you are a D Pursley fan send a donation to the Shepherd Center in Atlanta. They got that young man walking again.

      They are top notch 🙏🏽 but we also gotta give appreciation to his original hospital to as they started it all for him n that surgeon nailed his surgery.

    He’s so lucky, I was paralyzed 14 years ago, sled riding, I’m surprised he’s willing to risk it again

    • @cityslicknhomestead1507

      He's not risking any more than what he has always been risking racing. In that mindset no racer should be risking it 🤷🏽‍♀️.

    Daison is a very nice young man. He definitely will be a big factor in the USAC division. Looking forward to see him at the Midget Week.

    Owner of that 25 car was so pissed when the Australian guy flaked out but now look how it’s going, getting better results from a better driver

    That grey 25 is always fast. I'd love to see Pursley run it more. He needs to be in a wing car more.

      Yep. I think he was at the Grove on Friday too. He qualified at Port, but then doesn't appear in heat race results, so he might have called it a night. They have him 16th in the C.

    Saw his midget flip live on Flo when he was hurt. Followed his moms update son FB for months until he was released and started driving around town. Never thought we'd see him in race car again. Have feelings on him racin' open wheelers again. He obviously wants to do it but, man, what a risk. Pray it works for him. Rose broke a motor plate? YIKES
