It has been a long spring and summer for Adam but he is back to work as of Monday. Adam has been doing the physical therapy thing and working out at home most of the summer. Adam said he is about 90% back to normal as of today and getting stronger each week. He hopes to be fully recovered in a month or so. As for me (Big Daddy O) I had shoulder surgery a month ago to repair a torn bicep tendon. Just like Adam I am doing the physical therapy think and working on a limited basis. As for the teams schedule it is up in the air for now. We are looking for a sponsor to try to put together our plans for the 2008-2009 season. A&T Racing is planning now to do some grass drags for the fall. We will be using a 2002 Ski-Doo Renegade 800 twin for our drag sled. I will post the schedule as soon as I have it. Big Daddy O |

Adam is resting at home for now. The doctor said he has to stay off of his leg for three weeks. After that Adam goes back to have it checked again. According to the MRI and the doctor Adam fractured the bone below his knee cap, crushed his Meniscus, and tore his ACL half to three quarters of the way. The doctor wants to see how the fracture is healing before he decides to scope the knee or do full surgery and put in a plate. So for now Adam is spending his time sleeping and playing Wii. You can email Adam or do that My Space thing that I know nothing about. Well update everyone next week. Big Daddy “O” |

RAIN-RAIN GO AWAY!!! Was the chant of the day. The day started out as if the rain was going to hold off to later but it started to rain around 10:00 and put a damper on the entire day. Puddles of water and mud were the call for the rest of the day. Even with the rain both Adam and Tony were averaging around fifth place for their heat races. It wasn’t till the last race for the day for Adam that the day went from good to bad. On the second lap of Adam's last race he short jumped a double. The sled seemed to come to a halt and Adams right leg was straight and took the full brunt of the shock. He fell off and tried to get up but could not, and rolled off the track. By the way, did I mention Adam was in first at the time! Well Tony went past Adam and expected Adam to follow behind him at the end of the race. He didn't. Tony turned around to see the medical team attending to Adam. He was checked out buy the medical team and they suggested he see a doctor. Adam felt OK but did not race Sunday. Monday Adam went to the doctor and went right for a MRI. The doctor said it looks like a torn ligament or an ACL problem. The results will be in on Friday morning. Well keep you posted. Tony raced Sunday with the support of his brother limping along. Tony was running very good until he finished a heat race and told me that something broke in the suspension. We went back to the trailer and looked it over and sure enough Tony blew out blocks and limiter straps. Well good for Tony Adam’s sled was available. A quick suspension change and Tony was back running. A&T Racing has completed its season for 2008 and will post the final standings buy the end of the month. We thank all of our friends and family, not to mention our sponsors for your support over the season. We are looking for a major sponsor for the 2008-2009 season.
