Concord, NC — On the mend: Terry McCarl missed both nights of racing last weekend and will be out for an indefinite among of time, after suffering a severe injury to his left arm last week away from the race track. McCarl is scheduled to have surgery on the arm on Tuesday, April 20. Prior to this past weekend, McCarl was just outside of the Top-10 in the World of Outlaws standings.
“I don’t know exactly how long I’ll be out,” shared McCarl on Saturday night at I-55 Raceway. “They are telling me probably at least three months. It’s pretty disappointing. I’ve broken my hand and raced. I’ve broken my leg and raced, but I broke the tendon off my bicep, completely broke it in two. It’s a pretty bad deal. I’ll have the surgery and do the best I can.”
Super sub: Sammy Swindell, the three-time World of Outlaws champion, filled in for McCarl at Paducah International Raceway and I-55 Raceway over the weekend. The native of Germantown, Tennessee finished third last Friday night in his first World of Outlaws start of the season at Paducah. Swindell was second quick in time trials both nights.
“Terry has a good car and a good team and all they have to do is put somebody in here and roll it around,” said Swindell after the race last Friday night at Paducah. “The guys that work on the car do a good job. I’m fortunate to be here and the one they called to drive it. I’m glad to finish third. I wish I would have won, but it’s not bad.”

Ive often noticed Tmac doesnt use the shoulder restraint built into the seat , I believe he uses a Butler seat, with the head containment support, but, no shoulder , Guess I figured Terry didnt like the shoulder support for one reason or the other? (easier to wave bye?) lol , anyway, is there any chance the support would help ?

I understand that there may have been a bit of "horseplay" involved! :o

From www.ibracn.com
UPDATE #1: TMAC is going to have surger on his torn biceps tendon on Tuesday, April 20 and may be out of competition for as long as three months.
Terry McCarl was injured away from the race track on Thursday. From what I've been told, TMAC was at the race track in Paducah, KY and was sitting up his t-shirt trailer. He was holding onto a portion of the trailer that flips up with the logos and such, when a big gust of wind came up and caught that portion of the trailer that he was holding onto. When the wind caught the bilboard, it flung it up while TMAC was holding onto it and that is when the injury occurred. The report I got was that he has a severly strained biceps muscle/tendon. I'm told he may be out for an extended amount of time. In the mean time, Sammy Swindell was called to fill in for the weekend. Sammy finished 3rd in the car tonight at the WoO race. I'll try to find out more tomorrow at the ASCS race at I-80 Speedway.
