Wow. Looks like Matt didn't even have time to hit the brakes, since it looks like they never came on. Everyone have H&N restraints on?

Kevin,
We walked out to the spot of the crash on Saturday during the party. I left about 8 to 10 feet of skid marks before impact. The video does not show the brake lights, my friend said it has something to do with the GoPro in bright light at different angles. I definitely closed my eyes and hit the brake though. I had a HANS (thank God), I think Dan did also but Dr Aziz did not although he owns one.

Kevin, I actually stalled the car by locking up the brakes. I can tell because the pulleys were not moving when the radiator went into them and also the impact sheared off the front oil cooler line and there was no oil in the chassis damage. I pulled the motor tonight and hopefully with a pan change and a fitting or 2 it will be fine.

Matt, Hopefully there's no major damage to your engine/drivetrain.
Yes, I was wearing a Defender H&N restraint and had recently installed a right-side net. Both did a great job for me.
