After being sidelined for a week by back pain, Cat Manzi is set to resume driving on Friday at the Meadowlands.
Manzi had been involved in a spill on Monday, May 7, at Yonkers Raceway, the residual effects of which caused him to remove himself from the rest of his drives after last Friday’s seventh race at the Meadowlands. He was rushed to Hackensack University Medical Center with extreme back pain and was released early Saturday morning. "I think things just happened after the accident I was in last Monday at Yonkers,” Manzi said. “I had some very severe back spasms. I could hardly move and I spent the night in the hospital, but I've gotten better since then. Tuesday and Wednesday I even started back jogging. I'll plan on coming back Friday. I want to give it a few days and avoid the tendency to rush back. That might have been what caused the problem in the first place, coming back too soon." (Meadowlands)
