Jeff Krogh - Busch Series

Busch Series

Following the 1996 season, Krogh, along with his brother, moved to the NASCAR Busch Grand National Series, still competing for his family's race team. Over the next three years, he competed in 57 events, with a best finish of fifth at Texas Motor Speedway in 1998.

In July 1999, during final practice for an event at The Milwaukee Mile, Krogh's car was involved in an accident; he suffered severe head injuries, placing Krogh into a coma for a month. Moved to a specialist hospital in Colorado for treatment before returning home that December, Krogh spent over a year in recovery and rehabiliation. He was able to return to normal life, but has no memory of the accident, and never competed in racing competition again.

Famous quotes containing the word series:

    Depression moods lead, almost invariably, to accidents. But, when they occur, our mood changes again, since the accident shows we can draw the world in our wake, and that we still retain some degree of power even when our spirits are low. A series of accidents creates a positively light-hearted state, out of consideration for this strange power.
    Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
