    Last I heard was broken leg or ankle and concussion but nothing too serious considering how fast he went down.

    No it was Frank Trubino (sp) from canada. The guy was pitted across from me. I hope he gets well. He and his girlfriend were very nice people.

    Trombino is one of those very fast Canadains that you don't hear about much down here. I hope he is OK.

    And he was on Dunlops. He was using slicks earlier in the day. Anyone know which model/number tire it was or what type of failure it had?

    No idea on which model tire but it was a slick and suffered a catastrophic failure and shredded. Think trailer tire shredded.

    the same thing happened to a dunlop slick on creviers bike at mosport last year.
