Incident at the Texas Time Trials event yesterday...
So yesterday about 5 of us went to mineral wells for a Time Trial event to design a new course. Around 1pm we were all sitting around the campfire and grilling some food...
Out of nowhere a car blew right past us and drove to the back of the site, stopped and did a drag run across the far back length of the course. The driver just got his driver's license and borrowed grandma's car (a new ford focus) to go joyriding with some friends. We instantly sent someone out to talk to them but as soon as they saw us coming they took off to leave. At the entrance to mineral wells there is a bump where the site meets the road. The kids hit this at 40-50mph and spun out. The car ended up sideways but un-phased they sped off to leave.
So 30 minutes or so went by and we hear the sound of a loud exhaust heading up the road. We turned around to see what looked like the focus racing a truck. At the final bend in the road leading to the site the focus had way too much speed. It spun out, hit the dirt, and rolled.
At that point we called 911, grabbed our first air kit and extinguisher and headed over to provide assistance. Luckily none of the kids were hurt at all.
