Ken Johnson Update

June 15, 2005 - The feared infections set in over the past weekend and despite around the clock attempts to medically alleviate them, the outlook for a complete recovery of the limb became bleak.

After advice from the doctors and a serious amount of soul-searching, as well as discussions with his wife Kassi, Ken has decided to allow the doctors to amputate his left leg above the knee. This will allow Ken a resumption of a near-normal life and will also have him back doing the things he loves like motorcycle riding, racing, hunting, etc. in the near future.

Having spent a year with Reggie Showers' team, which was sponsored by PDI (Prosthetic Design, Inc.), Ken is quite aware of the challenges he will be facing and is looking forward to conquering them. Reggie called Ken last night and Ken told him because of what he saw Reggie accomplish, he is not scared about his future.

A fund will soon be set-up for donations to help defray Ken's continuing medical costs and we will pass along that information as soon as possible. In the mean time, for those wishing to send donations, please mail to: Ken Johnson, c/o Star Racing, PO Box 1241, Americus, GA 31709

We at Star Racing/G2 Motorsports would like to thank everyone who has expressed their concerns for Ken and Kassi. For now, please continue to keep Ken in your prayers, as there is still a long road to recovery.

Sincerely,

Jackie
