Ripped wires and airlines apart, bend the lower chassis flanges, destroyed the shock absorbers, and itself.

On that day, the #51 Clements team traveled to 311 Speedway in North Carolina for a dirt race like countless others they compete in each year. While on the track, a bizarre incident took place that would rewrite Jeremy's destiny. A part malfunction caused the steel driveshaft to break loose and pierce through the cockpit of Jeremy's car tearing through his right hand. Jeremy was rushed to nearby Wake-Forest Baptist hospital for emergency surgery. The outlook was grave as he had lost a significant amount of blood and there was extensive damage to the blood supply, tendons, bones and tissue in his hand as well as fractures to his arm and wrist. Over the next few weeks, Jeremy went through multiple operations, a bout of pneumonia and excrutiating pain but with the support of his family, he pulled through and amazed the medical staff with his unexplained progress.

Photos of such things are hard to come by for obvious legal reasons, lawyers being prone to ask such things as "How dare you let this happen?!"
As an exercise, you might calculate the energy in a driveshaft spinning at say 6,000 rpm...
