Jim Williams started driving sprints when he was 39.  He is currently in his third year of racing.  He had never raced anything in his life, and started with 780 horsepower behind him.
CALL HIM CRAZY!!!

This crash landed Jim with 2 broken ribs and a fractured scapula.  The only reason he sustained such injuries was because the car was flipping on the open side and his body was literally pounding the track.
He recovered well thanks to his wife.

Jim and his son, Cameron, future sprint car racer.  Jim hopes.

Jim has a little too much traction going on here.  May be  a little blurred, but I think you get the picture.
