So... yeah. Broken scapula, collarbone, and T1, and he says he plans on racing next week. That's one bad mofo.

Saw the injury list on twitter. Was gutted his season was over. Click the link and read that he plans on racing still. Literally yelled out loud at work fuck yeah. Lol. Doubt he can run with the top guys in his condition, but hopefully he proves me wrong

If he qualifies for the night show, he's not human.

Chuck Norris just stood up and put his shirt back on.

But seriously, how can he race with that list of injuries? He said he would be there but didn't specifically say he was racing. Would he be that misleading intentionally?

I'm gonna guess it is just hairline cracks? I mean, seriously there's no way to blitz whoops with stuff floating around. The T1 thing would scare me ! Reed is mega tough...he's proved it many times in the past.

Is it even possible to ride with those injuries? Perhaps they're not full breaks just cracks in the bones?

He says he will be there. Him racing is implied by poor reading comprehension.

hes high on morphine right now lol, even if there all hairline fractures, its not worth the risk not at all. broken bones always seem to heal in the slightly differnt direction/angle than before the breaks, atleast in my experience.

like he said, he'll be there toughing it out to sign autographs, not to race.

Broken scapula, collarbone AND T1...for him to say he'll race in 6-days with those injuries is the morphine talking. Chad is for sure a badass mofo, but one thing he's not is stupid.

3 broken bones. Scapula , collarbone & T1. @crtwotwo has a pain threshold that exceeds any normal rate but Who knows how the weekend will be. Racing at this level is tough on a healthy body. Unfortunately this is something he has experienced multiple times in his career. It's far from pretty and watching ur husband cry in pain is something I don't advise. But his heart would hurt worse by quitting.

Jesus. I broke a collarbone and scapula and couldn't even change gears in my car the following weekend! I can't believe it.... I can't see it happening. I'm a huge Reed fan....but no. No way.

If you met most of his family, you'd know that the Reeds are as tough as they come... Most are in the concrete or earth moving business. Hard as nails. "True blue" too.Wink

This is what I don't understand shouldn't the wife be trying to talk some sense into him?...Suppose he loses control because he can't hold on,.. then what?...
