Put this in the Race section and you will get more answers.
Did he do a first gear burnout?
I am no tranny man but, from what I have learned the sprag gets damaged and allows the front drum to spin to speeds beyond it's design capability, and explodes.
Sorry to hear the driver was hurt.
Did he have a shield or blanket for protection?
