I'm curious if maybe he had a health issue to begin with, they said he hit the wall head on when a part failed but were investigating...I can remember a few deaths in the 90's and early 2000's in the Northeast LA area dirt tracks where drivers died in wrecks but were due to health issues that caused the crash. Tough man...really sad.

I read a story that said after he hit the wall the car flipped violently. Considering the head/neck restrains aren't as secure in those types of cars, the whiplash could have done it. Or if some debris hit him the wrong way. I'msure we will learn more today.
