An update on Jason Perez, who crashed during the Supersport race at Mid-Ohio July 25, from his father, Dave Perez:
After a few days of rest Jason saw an orthopedic surgeon last Thursday. Unfortunately the damage to his shoulder is a little worse than originally thought. The X-rays showed a fracture in his shoulder at the top of his arm. Finding this out, we sought out Dr. Art Ting for further consultation.
The fractured bone is being held in place by the surrounding tissue, therefore no surgery will be necessary. This is great news considering he was airlifted away (from the track) and we feared the worst.
We would like to thank everyone for the enormous response of e-mails. Jason can’t wait to get back into action and is confident that he will be at full steam by Road Atlanta.
See you there!
