Video: Tim McCreadie Trying To Come Out After Spectacular Crash


“It’s all I’ve known my whole life,” Tim McCreadie said from a home in Indianapolis. “I don’t know if I could do anything else and be as successful as I’ve been.”

But last Wednesday, that success came to a screeching halt. The Watertown native, racing at the Lucas Oil Chili Bowl Midget Nationals in Tulsa, Oklahoma, flipped his car over several times and it’s the last thing he says he can really remember about the crash.

“I was conscious for a little bit of it, but the part of going over fence and landing on the tractor or Bobcat or whatever it was and then into the concrete floor, I don’t remember much of that,” McCreadie said. “I just remember waking up to them holding my head.”

“I’ve gotten a lot of calls, a lot of cards and flowers,” McCreadie said. “I just appreciate everything everybody’s done. You don’t realize how many people you’ve gotten to know or reached over the years until something like this happens.”
