UPDATE 12:29 a.m.
Lucerne Valley, CA
I am getting many emails for eyewitnesses to the horrific crash that took place at the California 200 Off Road race Saturday night in the desert.
Here are a couple of comments that I wanted to post to my many many readers who are seeking updated information. I have a couple of calls into law enforcement officials.
Hey Randy:
"I am fine, just a little surreal right now. The number might have just jumped to 9 deaths. One victim passed away at the hospital, or en route to the hospital. Lots of mixed info right now."
"I personally witnessed 50+ emergency vehicles."
"The area where the accident took place is at an area called 'The rock pile' where 85-90% of spectators gather to watch the race, as that is the first tough part of the course. There is a jump as you enter the turn, and apparently the race truck came off the jump sideways, and took out a large group of people."
"Several helo's (copters ) are/were on scene."
"Unknown how many total were transported, but numbers are near 20 I am told."
If you were at this scene tonight, please feel free to hit my comment section below.

The only thing I can say is this was horrible, and I wish I would have NEVER been there to witness this.
