Michelle Jones Holt, the mother of TJ, one of the crew members who was struck by Greg Martin during the Best Plumber 604 Racing Series event at I-75 Speedway, shared an update on the status of her son after he was taken to the hospital.

Holt wrote on Facebook, “At 12:17am this morning I got the phone call…”Mom, I’m ok, but we are heading to Park West Hospital.” My son TJ and a close friend DJ were the two guys working on the 17 car when the 24 car rammed it. I jumped out of bed and got straight to the hospital. 

“Luckily, TJ is ok, after CT of head and chest everything internally checked out ok. He has bruised ribs and 8 staples in his head but it could have been much worse. As far as I know DJ is ok too,” she added.

“I know racing but to ram a car with crew members working on it proves you are not emotionally mature enough for the sport. This could have been much worse! Thank you Jesus for watching over them,” she concluded.

Martin rammed the parked car of Matt Henderson after an on-track incident. Video of the incident was shared to Facebook by Cory Hedgecock that shows TJ and DJ working on Henderson’s car in the hot pit as Martin’s car approaches. Martin then drives into the side of Henderson’s car. The force of the impact throws the two crew members who were working on the opposite side of the vehicle to the ground. 

The series suspended Martin for a minimum of two years. In an announcement to Facebook it stated, “Following a review of the events that took place during last night’s feature race, the Best Plumber 604 Racing Series has made the decision to suspend Greg Martin from all Best Plumber 604 Racing Series events for a minimum of 2 years.”

“Driver and crew safety is of the utmost importance to the Best Plumber 604 Racing Series. All participants are expected to conduct themselves in a manner that protects the safety of competitors, crews, officials, fans, and partner tracks,” it added. “The Best Plumber 604 Racing Series will continue to uphold the standards of conduct expected at all series events.”

Martin was also arrested and was book in McMinn County, Tennessee at 1:08 AM on May 10th for aggravated assault, a Class C Felony according to RecentlyBooked.com.
