Perils of Dirt, who got hurt?

Kasey Kahne loves the dirt tracks and with an off week, what did he do?

You got it - race on dirt.

And just like they say, "and no one got hurt." Well, not at that crash.

At Kings Royal at Eldora Speedway, it was a different story for Joey Saldana, who, ironically, drives for Kasey Kahne Racing in the World of Outlaws series.

Saldana has had surgery on his right forearm, broken in a wreck in the Kings Royal A-main. There are screws and plates in that arm now, and the wreck also broke some ribs and partially collapsed a lung.



Here's wishing Joey a quick and complete recovery!
