Multiple fire departments
responded to the blaze at ThorSport’s 100,000-square foot race shop, with
flames seen above the roofline.
The
team issued a written statement this morning, saying, "Shortly after
midnight on Monday morning, a fire broke out in the basement of the ThorSport
Racing shop, located in Sandusky, Ohio. At this time, we can confirm that no
one was injured. We are currently working with the fire department and local officials
to contain the blaze, and assess the damage. We do not expect this to impact
the team's competition schedule. Our next race is at Iowa Speedway in Newton on
Saturday, June 18. Further details will be forthcoming."
ThorSport Racing – owned by
Duke and Rhonda Thorson -- is the longest tenured team in the NCWTS and fields
