There are times when owning a vert concerns me, typically after seeing vids like this. But it looked loose from the launch, he just stayed in it.

Total loss? I would think the chassis is screwed, along with grinding down whatever was closest to the glass hood, but all the mechanicals minus a few top pieces should have been ok.

Then again, I can see roll cages being a single use item.

the front was twisted all the front accessories were ripped off , it is on Carnage Fest , I would guess trans , rearend , and some things were ok but they show it on his trailer and it is jacked up
