Anzac weekend, Wellington Speedway, 2004. 381S Stockcar was wound off the end of the front straight, full noise. The driver sadly ended with a broken neck, his speedway career ended, far too early for those that knew him and had seen him racing.
Donald Kuriger was a very talented driver, yes he had a dam good car but the reality is, a car is only as good as the person behind the wheel getting the most out of his car.
Donald thankfully made a full recovery and has been out n about at tracks over the past 4 years watching the sport that is in his blood.
Not long ago Donald had a drive in a sprintcar and this sparked the passion to drive again. This passion has now been realised and the Kuriger name is once again going to appear on a racecar.
Welcome back Donald and good luck with your new venture into the Minisprint ranks. I look forward to seeing you back on track and doing what you do best.
