Kalitta...was taken to the Old Bridge division of Raritan Bay Medical Center, where he died a short time later.

He survived that?  And actually "lived" long enough to be taken to a hospital?  Shee.

HAH! The pyrotechnic death of a moron with a fast car. I laugh at his inconvenience, and chuckle to think of the maudlin bathos in the aftermath (the afterbathos. Every race car driver should be forced, by law, to cover himself in the sauce or dry rub of his choice before each race, to provide (in the happy event of automobilic explosion), the bystanders, pit crew, and race commentators with globs of tasty meat to sustain them during their period of righteous mourning.

The giblets are somewhat crunchy and the wings taste like an old sock but those ribs are perfect.

And subsequent unemployment, don't forget.

I think they tried this dry rub thing during the Indy 500 of 1957. The pepper got in drivers eyes during the race, causing cars to slow, not crash.

Check your periodic chart.  Low density=light weight.  You keep the stuff out of engines, it shouldn't burn, but damage the structure and introduce hot fuel and sparks, and, well, you've got one of those disasters the chem lab TA warned you about.  Similar design choices gave Japanese aircraft a huge advantage in range and payload at the start of WWII with apparently-underpowered engines, but a lack of armor and self-sealing gas tanks and the introduction of incendiary bullets to their gas tanks showed it wasn't always such a nifty advantage.
