<p>The story of two brothers, their dreams of the racetrack, and their success in racing ... and in overcoming great personal adversity. During their year growing up together in St. Catharines, Ontario, Chris and Rick Bye wanted nothing more than to be race-car drivers. And their dream actually came true as both men persevered to develop successful racing careers, competing at such venues as Daytona, Mosport, and Mt. Tremblant. Then Rick, on his way to participate in the Rolex 24 Hours at Daytona, had a horrific highway accident. While towing his race-car hauler on I-77 near Statesville, North Carolina, he slammed into two semi trucks waiting for traffic to clear. And Chris suddenly found himself at his brother's side -- not for another race but to help him recover from severe brain damage. Crash Test is Chris's inspiring story of crisis, transformation, and triumph, showing how two men's tenacity, tested on the racetrack, brought them through what would become the race of their lives. Chris Bye is president of Franczak Enterprises Ltd., a product marketing company serving the automotive sector, based in Toronto and St. Catharines, in Ontario, and in Troy, Michigan.</p>
