Tracey Hamilton, wife of injured race car driver Davey Hamilton, said the family has been deluged with get-well wishes since Davey's violent crash at Texas Speedway Saturday night in which his legs and feet were severely broken.

"I just want to thank everyone for their kind words and prayers. We have received literally hundreds of phone calls in the last few days regarding Davey's condition," Tracey Hamilton said in a statement.

"Davey and I are both extremely touched by all of the sentiment throughout the racing community and, although we would like to answer all of the well wishes and concerns, we need to focus our time and energy towards getting Davey well. The Indy Racing Northern Light Series is doing a great job of keeping everyone updated on Davey's condition as it changes, and they will continue to be the source for updates on his recovery for the fans and all of our friends."

Hamilton, who recently moved to Eagle, Idaho, his home state, after living in Las Vegas for the past five years, is listed in stable condition at Methodist Hospital in Indianapolis. Cards should be sent to Davey Hamilton, Methodist Hospital, 1701 N. Senate, Indianapolis, IN 46202.
