Wojcio to miss 8-12 weeks

Rich Wojcio is expected to be out from eight to 12 weeks after suffering a concussion, a broken left arm and facial injuries in a spill at Cal-Expo while driving GH Jasmin Saturday night, Jan. 9.

 

"I don’t remember a thing about the race, just waking up and being all banged up,” said the 49-year-old Wojcio. “It’s the worst accident I’ve had in 34 years of driving, and I’m just grateful that I’m able to talk to you and that nobody else was hurt. My son, Rich Jr., flew in from Texas that same night and is here to help me with my recovery.”

 

Wojcio, who shifted his base from the East Coast to California several years ago, has won 3,632 races in his career with over $21 million in earnings. (Cal Expo)
