Hello everyone, I am Nick Ottele. It was suggested that we put together a gofundme for Jim and we agreed that it would be a good idea. I’m not great with words but here it goes!

Jim has been in an unfortunate accident and is currently in the hospital with serious injuries. He’s having surgery today and there may be more in his future. Everything is so uncertain at this time. We don’t actually have a goal in mind, we kind of just picked one and went with it. The money donated will go to his medical and his personal expenses to assure we can keep him afloat in this trying time. This will also go to travel expenses in getting him and his gear home when the time comes. We don’t know what to expect but we appreciate every single person out there who are sending their thoughts and prayers. To those who ensured he got the help he needed from the track to the hospital. We feel the love and support and we will make sure he does as well! To those who donate we thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts. To those who can’t, well wishes and thoughts for a quick recovery are also very much appreciated. We can’t thank everyone enough for the help and support. We will keep everyone updated as well as we can manage.
