An adult and two 13-year-old boys were recovering Wednesday after they were
injured during an infield crash at Nebraska Raceway Park.
Spencer Kenkel, his cousin Alex Kenkel and 38-year-old Steve Kanne were
treated and released at the Nebraska Medical Center, said Brian Kenkel of
Elkhorn, Spencer's dad. All three suffered minor injuries, though Spencer
may have a break or a fracture in his right foot, Kenkel said.
The group was standing near Kenkel's late model racer, which was parked for
repairs, about 9 p.m. on Tuesday when sprint car driver R.J. Johnson lost
control of his car after part of his steering mechanism broke while driving
through the pits. Johnson struck the teens and Kanne, who lives in Gretna
and works with Kenkel.
Kenkel said his son, nephew and friend were resting Wednesday and would
likely be fine.
