Brock Zearfoss Sidelined For Two Weeks Due To Lingering Concussion Symptoms
Story By: TYLER ALTMEYER / BROCK ZEARFOSS RACING – JONESTOWN, PA – After extensive medical consultation, World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series Rookie of the Year contender, Brock Zearfoss, will be sidelined for the next two weeks due to lingering concussion symptoms. Zearfoss first experienced symptoms following a crash at Magnolia Motor Speedway in Columbus, Mississippi, on Friday, March 12.
“I just haven’t been feeling the best, so I wanted to take some time and figure out what was going on,” Brock Zearfoss said, who capped his recent weekend of competition with a pair of WoO top-tens at Attica Raceway Park and Sharon Speedway. “I was fortunate enough to get in contact with one of the best concussion doctors in the country. It was determined that I am still suffering from some lingering side effects. It’s in my best interest to take a few weeks off, heal completely, and come back better than ever.
“I feel like I am letting my team, sponsors, fans, and World of Outlaws down, but this is something I have to do,” Zearfoss continued. “I hope to be back for Knoxville in a couple weeks.”
If all goes according to plan, Brock Zearfoss and Brock Zearfoss Racing will resume World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series competition with the two-day Brownells Big Guns Bash at Knoxville Raceway in Knoxville, Iowa, on Friday and Saturday, June 11-12. The “Jonestown Jet” owns eight WoO top-tens thus far in 2021 and will enter medical leave ninth in the title chase.
