Pretty much explains what happened and in the aftermath showing the car being hauled off the track they left something behind..

A Chevy engine block.

Completely separated from the chassis.

4 bolts and the bell housing sheered right off. Kinda awesome considering after all that Sadler just hauls his bum out of the car and takes a seat next to the car trying to put his head back on straight.

8/1/10 - GM achieves a world first with Elliot Sadler at the wheel when they put a Chevy Racing Block engine into orbit.. around it's host car.

Ouch.

Yikes! :help:

Glad he's okay.

I believe Elliot Sadler drives a Ford for Richard Petty Motorsport... Was glad to see him walk out of the care center on his own...

It would be a Ford motor. :)

Yeah. Very glad he was okay. He is really gonna be sore tomorrow.

Ouch - Pocono needs to change it's backstretch NOW!

:facepalm:

that blows,glad hes alright. btw those cars run SBC and saying a Chevy BBC is kinda redundant cus BBC means Big Block Chevy. i had to say it :D

Elliot's car had neither. He was driving a Ford.
