Ricky Rudd Injured Shoulder

Ricky Rudd, who made his 900th career Cup Series start Sunday at California Speedway, separated his left shoulder and was briefly knocked unconscious in a wicked wreck during the Sharp Aquos 500.

The shoulder is the major concern, and leaves Rudd concerned about his status for next weekend's Chevy Rock 'n Roll 400 at Richmond International Raceway. (Can we say Kenny Wallace?) He said he wouldn't grade his chances of competing as very high, which is significant, considering Rudd once taped his eyelids open with duct tape so he could race.

"That lap or two is out of my memory. I was awake when I stopped. But I tried to unbuckle and couldn't because my shoulder just wouldn't work."
