RIP Don Ermshar Drag Boat Legend

- Start date
I just found this, after reading Marks headline.
Sad news our prayers are with his family.
Long time Lucas Oil Drag Boat racer Don Ermshar is in ICU at Harrison Methodist Hospital in Fort Worth, Texas after a horrendous crash left him at the bottom of Marine Creek Lake, located in Northwest Fort Worth. Don was trapped 30ft under the water for nearly 15 minutes, but thanks to his air tight driver’s capsule and the quick actions of the SPBA Safety crew, Don is expected to make a full recovery.
Don was crossing the finish line in his Lucas Oil Top Alcohol Flat bottom when the bottom began shaking left to right. The violent motion sent him tumbling across the water, destroying the boat and badly injuring Don. After a swift rescue Don was rushed to the hospital where he underwent emergency surgery to repair a separated shoulder, arm and damaged artery in his brain.
