My Last post on the subject are the words from the man himself, TJ!
"Hey guys, this is TJ, i just joined this group and as i was reading
all the messages i just wanted to say thanks to everybody that was
concerned, to those that visited me in the hospital and to everyone
that pitched in at the track. Just to let you know im in 2 casts
now,
one on my hand that will be on for 4 weeks and one on my leg for 6 to
8 weeks, which means i should be able to race at the september meet,
although not on the busa.
I also saw that a lot of people were wondering about gloves and
leathers and whatnot. All of it did its job and i wouldnt be here
typing id it hadn't. The leathers were as about as plain of a set as
you can get, but they only rubbed through in one spot, but that was
mainly due to my boniness. As for gloves, they were a fairly nice
set
of Teknic racing gloves and they did great. One of my hands is
broken, but thats nothing any pair of gloves could have fixed.
Overall, considering i fell off at over 160, i am in great condition
and all the gear did its work. I dont think that anything could have
helped me turn out any better, but i know i could be a lot worse
