I saw the car being lifted on a flatbed as I was leaving the show. He didn't hit a tree, he hit the light pole in the center median -- a light pole with about a 3' high concrete base. I didn't recognize the car either. I was trying to dig my digital camera out of the bag while driving, as the police were directing us over onto the opposite side of the median. I couldn't get the damn thing turned on in time, and the cop directing traffic whistled at me to move my ass!

The front end of the car was smashed to **** -- fiberglas, glass, and stuff all over the place, including lots of fluids... coolant probably from the looks of the front end. The car was a dark crimson red, metallic color. The wheels were a modern style, chromed 5- or 7-spokes.

My son Nick, who left the show earlier, told me on the cell phone that there were two ambulances there at the time, and one passenger was on the ground in a neck brace.
