From the prod forum:

I just got back from Chris' house. He is doing great, other than busted knee and broken neck. He's in good spirits and thanks everyone for their well wishes. We went out to look at the car,it's the first time he got to look at it. Looks like the left front wheel bearing gave up and cooked the CV joint causing it to seize and straighten the steering wheel up in the turn. The chasis is DONE. The engine and gearbox seem to be ok. The cage seems to have done it's job well. Right side wheelbase is about a foot shorter and big wrinkles in the roof and floor. He now has a one foot riser on his Lazy-boy, kinda like a throne now. He also has some new racecar coloring books and Lego car kits so he can stay active in racing. Great to see he is home and safe.

Rumour has it that he's been spotted at certain events, just not driving.

Chris was at the runoffs, and should be at Gateway this weekend. Patrick will be running at least one of his cars.
