Bryant Goldstone's 73 Javelin was in 2nd place in the Unlimited class and overall when he arrived at Martin on Day 5 with a 6.95 average with his best pass being a 6.78 @ 208 on Day 3 at Indy. Unfortunately on his 1st pass at Martin he got loose at half track, spun and hit the wall in the opposite lane with his frontend. He then slid on his roof through the traps. The car was pretty much destroyed, but fortunately he was not injured. This car is powered by a 572ci big block with twin turbos on methanol. He's been racing this car since at least the mid 90's and had just done a bunch of chassis work to it. At this point I'm not sure if the car is rebuildable or not.
