According to his website, pro quad racer and freestyler Dana Creech "ended up with a severe case of heat stroke" at Rd. 1 of the ATVA Grand Nationals in Macon, GA today (Sunday March 17th).

"Dana collapsed on his quad half way through the white flag lap while trying to push it up a hill... with his right hand resting on the exhaust pipe" resulting in "some burns on his palm, but the doctors have assured us that they will be uncomfortable for a few days but not have any lasting permanent damage." The writing goes on to say that Dana "is doing very good at an excellent hospital in Macon, Georgia."

I hope he will recover fully. Often when people have a heat stroke they cannot tolerate heat and severe exertion very well.
