Nick Hogan has made his first public statement, such as it is, since crashing his car and sending a good friend into a coma, perhaps for life. Here's his first public statement:

omggggg its been forever since i blogged...hell i dont even know what blog means but i guess its where you write stuff for people to read

anyways my last one was before i even drove for mopar, if you check my pics youll see that i did end up driving for them for my amateur season and most of my pro rookie season. i recently left the mopar team tho...things didnt work out to well

but!....i picked up a new title sponsor...POLAROID! and started my own team with twin 350z's pretty cool i know

anyways id like everyone to wish my luck for my 08 season and keep john graziano in your prayers

Keller's Analysis: Omgggg, that was really sad. He decides taking a chit-chatty tone about what a blog is, his Mopar team not going well, and picking up a new sponsor for his high-speed driving for sport is the least bit appropriate considering what he's been through? He might be "just a kid," but that is really scary judgment on his part. At least in the end he snuck in a little shout-out to his friend, right after asking people to wish him luck in his next forray into organized legal speeding - all in the same sentence.

PWTorch VIP members are discussing this My Space entry, including:

--"If that's really from Nick's MySpace page, I'm speechless. You'd think at the very least the family would have involved a PR team by now (and I would have already assumed one was permanently attached to that family for the past few years) that would tell Nick to avoid blogging dumb crap. I would think of running journal of how this accident has affected his life and how he will change things would do much more to change people's opinion on him rather than this."

--"Ha ha. Nick Hogan isn't the sharpest knife in the drawer, though I don't think he's that dumb especially typing stuff such as omggggg."
