IMPROVING
RACING TO THE
SCENE OF AN
OFF-ROAD INJURY
L
ike two seasoned pros living
off the razor's edge, Ivor
Shier and Dr. Jeff Grange
have raced along the sandy
washes and rock-strewn
switchbacks of some
incredible off-road events. Yet, for
all their skills and years of experience
in the seat of their 650 horsepower
machine, they have never won a race,
or even touched a single tire tread
on the course itself. The reason why,
is because Shier is the owner and
operator of Corporate Helicopters,
the team that flies Dr. Grange, the
official SCORE medical doctor. The
two fly hundreds of feet above the
race to provide emergency medical
support. It's a risky job both are willing
do. Not for prestige, but to save lives,
and to help the seriously injured, while
lesser situations are handled by local
ambulance based medical units.
