****UPDATE****

I spoke to Bob last night and he was in good spirits. He said his neck, back, spine, and brains are all there and unharmed. He has some soreness from the belts and helmet. The damage seems to be mainly to his left index finger, which was closed up and is not an issue anymore. His right arm is the big issue at this time, His arm was broken half way between the elbow and wrist, and had to be re-attached by a titanium rod and the muscle/tendon/nerve damage is very bad. They went in yesterday to get an evaluation of what to do to try to reconstruct his forearm to give him use of that hand in the future. The good side is the main blood supply that goes to that hand was never severed, so he does have a living viable hand, however they are unsure of how useful they can make it. According to Bob they will have a better idea of what they are going to do today. He also was very upset that his car was destroyed (as can be expected) but the car can be rebuilt and he can not.

For those who are wondering how his arm was damaged. His arm restraints were on and tight, when the car hit the wall the carbon body was blown off and we believe his arm was able to come out between the frame rails in front of the seat above the shifter.

Will update when I hear more.

Be sure to stop by my trailer this weekend @ Atco or at Maple Grove next weekend. I will have a body pannel of Bobs and some permanent markers that we all can write him a message and sign for him to keep, and realize just how many people are thinking about him in such a hard time. Knowing Bob this will be something he will most likely hang in his garage and look and appreciate your thoughts and prayers for years to come.
