Roush crewman killed
Roush Racing reported Saturday that Michael Fermaglich, 32, of Mooresville, N.C., was killed Friday night in an automobile accident in Concord, N.C.
Fermaglich had worked for the past two years as a fabricator at Roush's operation based in Mooresville. In addition to his weekday role of fabricator, Fermaglich served as the race-day pit boss for driver Matt Kenseth's No. 17 Busch Series team.
"This is obviously a sad day for Roush Racing," No. 17 Busch crew chief Jimmy Fennig said. "Mike was a hard worker and a valuable part of our team both at home and on the road.
"We still have to race [Saturday] because that's who we are and what we do, but our thoughts and prayers are with Mike's family."
