Local Drifter Accident

I just made a post in the M3 section on a guy that I met locally selling parts, that is really into drifting, and unfortunately had an accident where his car fell off the jackstands onto him at his own drift event. He was in the hospital for about a week, and is now working on recovering. If you care to see my background on how I met the guy, it's here: https://www.m3post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1854727.

The story of the accident is on his YouTube page if you're interested: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=64JNvnvlOG8

I wanted to share the post for two reasons.

First, please make sure you're safe out there guys/gals. Not a negative against him, just a reminder to keep yourself safe. We are all enthusiasts, and it's a shame to hear about stuff like this.

Second, he's going to have continued medical expenses and has a business he was starting. Someone in the drift community setup a gofundme for him: https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-evan...-medical-costs. I know everyone has their own views about medical expenses, insurance, and where that lies with personal responsibility. Just providing the link if people are so inclined.

Say safe out there friends.
