I had no idea at the time that this vehicle tossed around and destroyed was that of Tim Samaras who with his son and team mate was killed in the tornado. It sent a chill up my spine. An engine, I suspected was from this vehicle, was found down the road about 100 metres or so. I just found out it was from another vehicle!
