Denny Hamlin Injured 3 Weeks Before Daytona 500

With the kick-off the the 2010 NASCAR racing season just weeks away, a non racing injury has rocked the NASCAR world. The driver of the # 11 Toyota Fed-Ex car, Denny Hamlin suffered an injured that may throw his entire season, he tore his ACL while playing basketball. He has opted to wait until the end of the season to have it repaired (which could always change if he gets replaced for not being able to preform well). He has not disclosed the extent of the injury, but ouch that is a hurtful injury. We'll all have to see what happens when the season kicks off with the Daytona 500 on Feb 14th.
