I knew Mark for about 15 years as a great customer who purchased metal from me from me for this machine shop in Phoenix. Mark always has a smile and was super to work with. Her will be sorely missed for decades to come. RIP Brother.

It always seems like the ones that don't look "as bad" are the ones that do so much damage. All prayers to her ad her family and a solid and speedy recovery.
@@grizzellor Yeah, looks like a hard hit. I am guessing those lanes are about 30 feet wide. She was right-of-center in her lane before it made a hard left. She covered at least 45 feet laterally in about 1.5 seconds before impact. That vector was 30+ feet / second, which is 1,800 feet per minute. So call it 20.5 MPH (minimum). I don't know how to calculate the rotation that also happened just before impact, but we can easily see it add to the violence of the impact. Contact with an immovable object at 20 +mph plus rotation is a hard hit, much more so when that energy is absorbed from the side.
This was a wreck. John Force walked away from an accident when he crossed the center line. His chute got tangled up with the other driver's chute and sent John into the wall. This wreck was a hard lick. I don't know what the G force is but testament to the safety built around the driver. If that was a Ferrari they would mop you up. Basilar skull fracture is a game changer. It's what took out Dale Earnhardt Sr. That said Ernie Irvin got one. Continued racing after he healed. Nascar racing with one eye. Sardines in water or tomato paste. High in calcium super food.
wow that smarts prayers for Her family and all friends and Fans may Gods healing be upon us all and I ask for your mighty healing hand upon this young Lady we ask for healing a fast recovery to see her back where she at her Best . Prayers
