It was a fireball when he passed where I was then the body collapsed then blew off.
He made the show with that pass though. They said Dunn had another body. But a lot of work to do other than replacing the body.

He talks about how he felt about the explosion in the article seemed pretty content with his safety considering he said this:

“It could have been a rocker arm or something else,” Lesenko speculated. “There’s nowhere to place blame. We struggled a bit with our clutch this year and I tell you, I have a great crew and great team. It’s drag racing. That’s why we wear firesuits.”
 
I read some comments about how Big Jim "won't be happy" and how Lesenko probably won't be returning next year. Did I miss something? I watched the video and he was driving that car until it stopped, with a face full of fire EVEN after the body came off. Unless there was something happening where he should have lifted, I don't know, but he made the show on that pass besides. Looked like a parts failure to me.

When is Big Jim ever happy? Secondly, the list of people willing to cut him a check to drive that car isn't getting any longer. It's not like he's paying these guys LOL.
 
It's a good thing there wasn't a photog standing along the wall right where the car was at :36 in the video!
