7k Out for a while

[teamkurtz]

Just to let everyone know Chance will not be racing for a while. He has been having a problem with his right eye for the last month. The Dr thought they had it under control but it started giving him problems last week. We took him to a specialist in Wichita and after a bunch of test, he narrowed it down to a treatable disease akantamoeba(sp). They have no idea how he got it, could have been from contacts, swimming, shower or even bottled water being splashed in his eye. Dr says no racing, wrestling or swimming for at least 30 days but it could take up to 6 months to treat. So we are following the Dr's orders very closely so that Chance can get back to doing the things he loves very soon. We will keep you posted on his progress.

Sorry to hear this. One thing I know for sure is that besides being a great racer Chance is a TUFF kid. He will be back & hammerin on that 250 in no time. Take care of that eye & we'll look forward to seeing ya later this summer.

Chance, really sorry to hear this. I like getting behind you in practice on the track to find the quick way around. Hope this gets healed up real soon. Looking forward to seeing you back at the race track.

Glad to hear you are following doctors orders. Definitely better to take a month or so off than risk any chance of permanent damage. Take care Chance.

Take care of yourself Chance. I know it is hard to put the things you like to do on hold, but in the long run it will be worth it. We will be looking forward to when you come back.
