BALLOU TO DRIVE FOR
INDY RACE PARTS AT SPRINT WEEK JULY 6, 2009
--- Robert will be driving for Bernie Stuebgen (Indy Race Parts) for Indiana Sprint
Week. Ballou's familiar red #81 will be parked for
those events. Robert would like to thank MPHG, Dallas, and Jim for
their support.
The early portion of the
May 3rd Sprint Car event at Kokomo Speedway was
marred by an accident involving Robert Ballou.
Ballou, who was victorious at the local oval in an
August 26, 2007 program, flipped his machine into
the turn four concrete after contact with Hunter
Schuerenberg during the night's third heat race. The
rollcage of Ballou's sprinter was mangled in the
crash, and had to be removed to extract Ballou. The
Rocklin, California native was transported to St.
Joseph Hospital and later to Methodist Hospital in
Indianapolis for observation.
