Super Buggy Nissan Nationals Championship
Eustaquio suffers big wreck at the Nissan Nationals
San Diego, California - The Super Buggy race was wild off the
start line as cars positioned for the first lap, however Joe
Eustaquio, driving the #6 SCORE Class 10 car crashed violently
and suffered some serious injuries here in Chula Vista. It's
believed that Eustaquio lost his helmet in the crash and he
banged up his head in the car. ORC Staffer Brittany Sanchez
reported Eustaquio's helmet flew from the buggy after the
initial roll. It's believed Eustaquio rolled three times before
coming to a rest.
Eustaquio had to be cut out from the car as it sat on the race
track in front of the crowds. Chula Vista Fire Department
personnel worked feverishly to extract the injured racer and
they later told ORC staffers that they believed he would be
alright.
The race was red flagged and cars were sent back to the start
line where we are awaiting the race to restart. |
There were a lot of photos, here are a few.
