Former Winston Speedway Modified driver and present Sprint Car driver Nate Bostrom took quite a tumble Friday during Michigan Traditional Sprint Car Series show. Bostrom was looking to stay on pace at the start of the Topless Sprint Feature when he ducked to the inside line. During the move he caught a competitors tire causing his car to flip and twist over in a violent nature. The impact was so hard the Fuel Cell came loose from the car. The Chassis was totaled
Nate's injuries were not life threatening, but the hard impact caused fractures in three vertebrae in his back. He is home but is very sore.
The Bostrom family would like to thank the workers involved in getting Nate out of the car. They put themselves in harms way with leaking fuel all around Nate and his sprint car. The Bostroms are very grateful. They would also like to thank those who expressed their concerns Friday Night and continue to do so.
The Bostrom race team will let Nate heal and evaluate the rest of the 2007 season.
