In I987 I helped build this car and designed the paint scheme (which was a departure from our signature "swish" on the back quarter panel). Sounds like he will survive, but a return to racing is questionable. He had a habit of doing test runs without the front end on the car and I hope that foolishness wasn't a factor. Thoughts are with him and his family. His son (a total asshat, btw) was married at one time to my wife's niece.

Multiple broken bones. He will go in for the first (of many, I'm sure) surgery tomorrow. He was doing about 160 mph. Car is total loss.
