"If it weren't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all...
Ohhh.....
Gloom, dispair, and and agony on me......"
If anyone has a four-leaf clover, or a lucky rabbit's foot or some other lucky charm, my nephew Anthony could really borrow it.
It's been nothing but bad luck all season.
He got run over at Granby in May. Last week, at Bear Ridge(I didn't go-dialysis), the field wadded up in front of him in the heat race. Anthony spun the car out to keep from hitting anyone. The guy behind him failed to do the same and plowed into him.
Friday night, back at Granby, Anthony "got hit by a stray bullet." Cory Sparks was trying to keep from looping it in turn four. Michael Parent crashed into him and barreled rolled a couple of times. The right front tire came off and struck Anthony's car, breaking a radius rod, bending the steering arm, and severing the brake line. Unable to steer, and with no brakes, Anthony ended up crashing into the inside wall. Two cars, two bent frames. Not even sure if we will go to Mohawk this Friday.

Anthony got hit by the spare tire, and slammed the inside wall.
