Tony, as he was known in racing circles, was flown by Life Star medical helicopter to Hartford Hospital where he later died. Autopsy results are not expected until Monday, according to the Chief Medical Examiners office.

Without doubt...it's worth it.

It is a dangerous sport, I accept it. Hang it out, or hang it up.

STAFFORD - The state medical examiner has determined that the 21-year-old motocross rider fatally injured in a crash during a practice run at Stafford Motor Speedway Saturday afternoon died of head injuries.

Rider Anthony Hart died of blunt force trauma to his head resulting from the crash, a spokeswoman for the medical examiner's office in Farmington said Wednesday.

The crash remains under investigation, state police spokesman Trooper William Tate, said Wednesday.

Hart, of Henderson, Nev., lost control of his motorcycle during practice and hit an outer track barricade at the speedway, state police have said. He died later Saturday at Hartford Hospital, where he had been taken by Life Star medical helicopter after the 3:30 p.m. incident.

Hart, known in racing circles as Tony, was the brother of freestyle motocross and reality television star Carey Hart, former husband of Grammy-winning pop star Pink.

In a statement, track officials said Hart was practicing Saturday for the Doug Henry New England Grand Prix when the crash occurred.

The event was sanctioned by the American Motorcyclist Association, part of the AMA XTRM Supermoto Championship series.

This is the second year that Stafford Motor Speedway has hosted the event, in which racers compete on the track's paved sections and on traditional dirt motocross sections in the infield.

[color=blue]Man, that's horrible. That family has faced a lot of adversity in recent years. I can't imagine what they must be going through. Tom Hart is very close to his boys & always kept them well-grounded, as far as I could see. He's got to be crushed. I remember Tony racing as a kid in Vegas, same as the Partridges. Very sad day. For the record, I have no clue who gt80 is, but to make light of something like this makes me think very little of him from the get-go. Condolences out to Tony's friends/family...//TJ [/color]

what the hell are you thinking gt8o? are you really that cold blooded? What a peace of shit you are. You have no idea of the suffering this family is going through. why don't you post your real name and be accountable instead of hiding behind some little pussy gt80 name? I don't wish this kind of pain on anybody, not even a cold pile of shit like you.
