Hi everyone, I apologize about the vagueness of the previous post. I wanted to keep it that way until we knew more about Matt's abdominal pain from the doctors but we now know it is a gallstones...

I'd say Matt loaded all the right tune-ups based on Q1 and Q2! All things considered, pretty amazing.

Best wishes for Matt and team. Boy that hospital tune really ripped for Angie, 6.69!

Smith's out until Indy. Multiple gut issues...gallbladder, kidney stones, inflamed pancreas and 2x hernias. I've dealt with gallbladder and pancreas issues and I'm telling you, it's painful as all hell. Good to see Angie bring home the bacon.

It appears that he still has an excellent chance to make the Countdown.

I think the rule is 6 races he can use a substitute. That would mean by Brainerd he'd need to be back. Skipping one race before Indy shouldn't hurt his countdown status much.

PSM only has 2 more races before Indy, Bristol and Norwalk.

PSB only runs two more times prior to indy. bristol and norwalk, then all of them from indy on.

Anybody who doesn't believe that the racing community if family and comes together when a team is in need should read what Angie said about everyone offering whatever help was needed when Matt was in the hospital.

Including Eddie and Andrew (Vance and Hines) picking the spots on the starting line and getting the bikes lined up, which is normally Matt's job.
