Brack´s New Arrival

KENNY AND ANITA BRACK ENJOY NEW ARRIVAL
ON NEW YEAR’S EVE WITH BIRTH OF THEIR FIRST CHILD

Daughter Karma Gives Mom and Dad Great New Year’s Gift

Team Rahal’s Kenny Brack and his wife Anita received the greatest New Year’s Eve present possible with the birth of their first child, daughter Karma, at 6:31 p.m. (EST) on Dec. 31 in the Riverside Methodist Hospital in Columbus.

The newest Brack weighed six pounds, 13 ounces and was 18 inches long.

Ironically, Brack, who serious injured in a crash in the IRL IndyCar Series finale on Oct. 12 at Texas Motor Speedway, also was in the hospital at the same time after receiving a medical procedure to improve his rehabilitation.

“She is blonde as could be with blue eyes,” said the happy dad. “Everything went very well, without any complications, except that I could not be there to assist, or maybe that’s why it went so well! Luckily we had a good friend there instead. I was also in the hospital, but a few floors up, recovering from another surgery. What a great ending to an otherwise challenging year!

“I was able to see Anita and the baby in the hospital room a couple of hours before New Years and we had a great celebration together. That was very exciting and I was able to see the new family member on video from the delivery room!”

Anita and Karma returned to the Brack’s Columbus home with Kenny on Jan. 2.

“My parents are helping Anita now with the baby and I am getting my sleep too,” said Brack. “I’m back into my rehab program and that feels good. We’ve had some tough times this year but I’m looking forward to 2004 so much.”

Brack, the 1998 IRL IndyCar Series champion and 1999 Indy 500 winner, suffered a fractured right femur, a fractured sternum, a fractured lumbar (L-3) vertebrae and fractures to both ankles in the crash with his Pioneer/Miller Lite Honda car.

Persons wishing to send a congratulatory or get-well message to Brack can do so at www.teamrahal.com or by sending cards or letters to: Team Rahal, 4601 Lyman Dr., Hilliard, Ohio 43026.
