Former crew chief Barry Dodson recovering from auto accident
By Steve Waid
Wednesday, April 22, 2009
Former NASCAR Cup crew chief Barry Dodson suffered multiple injuries in an automobile accident on April 10 in Pawley’s Island, S.C.
Dodson was taking a test drive at a dealership when he says the car’s accelerator hung. He crashed into two cars on the lot, totaling both, before he struck a steel pole.
Dodson suffered neck, shoulder and closed-head injuries and remains under a physician’s care.
“The only escape route I had was a busy four-lane highway,” Dodson said. “So I chose to crash into the cars on the lot rather than taking a chance on injuring someone else.”
He declined to identify the dealership.
Dodson served as a crew chief for more than a decade and won the 1989 Cup championship with driver Rusty Wallace.

Apr 22, 2009 at 6:59 PMI don't know why you people think that the dealership matters. Who cares. Barry Dodson was one of the most respected crew chiefs in NASCAR. Not to mention loosing two of his kids in a auto crash years ago. I hope that he recovers from his injuries in a timely manner. Barry I hope you recover and bring your knowledge about NASCAR to millions of people who don't have a clue what NASCAR is.

Apr 23, 2009 at 5:10 AMI'm sure 99% of readers don't even know who Barry Dodson is, let alone the fact that he lost both his kids the same way- in a car accident. Hopefully his injuries are not too severe. How much more can one person or persons take? Get well soon!

Apr 23, 2009 at 12:19 PMI wish Barry a very speedy recovery. I had a similar situation happen to me several years ago only I didn't hit parked cars, I hit an off duty police officer in his personal car, a MERCEDES! Fortunately no one was hurt in my crash but still it was quite embarassing. Take care Barry and God bless.
