I received a call today about a 12 year old boy, Dylan Wray, an Oklahoma racer, who was traveling with his father on November 13 on the Muskogee Turnpike. Apparently, a drunk driver was going the wrong way and there was a wreck. Dylan's father lost his life at 35. This really touched me because Trey was 12 when he lost his father.

This Sunday the FCA is putting on a ride day at Alpha Motocross in Okmulgee, OK. Admission is free, riding is from 10-dark. There will be a silent auction with items donated from Guy Cooper, Kenny Bartram, Robbie Reynard, Trey Canard, and hopefully others. The track is 1 mile north of Okmulgee on Highway 75. If you live in the area, and wanted something to do, this would be a good cause. All proceeds go to the Wray family. If you need more details, PM me.

Man I don't know what I would do if I lost my dad. It will only make a erson stronger and if you have god in your corner you will get though it all. Trey is a perfect example of this for sure.

DUI should have stiffer penalties. The slap on the wrist these people are getting doesn't seem to be helping. My condolences to the family.

They don't have anything set up at this time, but they will try to do a website or possibly have another auction at a later date. The mother is just trying to keep this boy racing.

I totally understand. If you hear about the website/another auction, please keep us in the loop.


Thanks Mom241.

As should vehicular homicide, in the state of Colorado you could kill up to 3 people in 3 seperate accidents before your license would be subject to be taken away.

My thoughts and prayers go out to everyone involved.

So sick of hearing these drunk driving stories,specially after almost getting killed by one myself.

The laws need to be re-thought and stiffened! Its stupid what some of these people get away with.

Condolences to the family,such a sad ordeal.
