At the speed that accident look like it must have happened at, his insides were probably so rearranged by the impact it wouldn't have mattered if the motor came through the firewall and hit him in the head, he was probably dead on impact.

Thats why most race car drivers, even in BMW CCA club racing are wearing HANS deviceses, they are even talking about making them mandatory.

If he hit a telephone pole at over 100 and it didn't snap, noway was anyone living through that accident regardless of what kind of car it was.
That’s right, even if you don't snap your neck you often suffer internal bleeding, your arteries can tear from your heart and you will die in a matter of minutes, your retinas can detach from your eyes, and sever damage to other organs.
