HI,

Got a bunch of calls all about the same thing so ill try to be efficient
about calling you all back:

With about 6 or 8 cars left  in line to make second run, a 7 year old child
rode a small motorcycle past the patrols 3 & 4 on the tower side, on to the
course while the " One trick pony" mustang was making his run.
The driver of the car never saw the cycle, but heard some thing, thought he
hit a cone as he was close to the right side cones, then decided the sound
was metallic and pulled off.
The kid impacted the car on the right side door area, that is,  ran into the
side of the car. He  obviously wasn't looking.
 He appeared to have suffered a broken leg only. Was conscious and coherent,
shipped by air ambulance to hospital; meet was called.

Father and friends were atv/motorcyle group,  not racers. Was about 1/2 hour
before they heard announcement calling them on our radio and came to scene.
About all I know now.

UPDATE

Child HAS ONLY A BROKEN LEG AND DOING FINE, NO Other
injuries.
