Prayers be with you
Hello Stan,
My name is Randy Nevers, I am a crew member with Billy Mauff and WHM Motorsports, we saw the flip from where we were watching the race, your crew was there with us also. We are all close and good friends, you were running hard and catching Bob. We are so sorry for what happened, our prayers are with him and yourself for speedy recoveries.

Last night Jim started coming around. A lot more talking and what looked like a big improvement from just 12 hrs earlyer. He will stay in the ICU a little longer but this is good. Thanks everyone your prayers are working!

The reason for stroke was the force of the water trying to rip the helmet off his head. The helmet strap was tearing on his artery and partially ripped the vain. When in the ER in KW they were primarily looking for head tarama only. Later that night some of the skin on the vain moved and slowed down the flow of blood to his brain. The Dr. in Miami felt it was better not to attempt surgery at this time due to the risk of life. His blood pressure has been boosted up to attempt to see if the vain will start to heal itself. Thats the best I can describe it now. He has talked very little at this time but is sedated pretty good.
