Looks most likely like a TH35O intermediate sprag failure causing a drum explosion.
TH 400 will fail the same way, but not as common.

Not sure and I think not required as it was not a 10.99 or quicker car.

Some first round finish line shots....

Tough day for the mopars. Thats a Dakota hitting the wall and a dart or demon with the tranny explosion. That’s why they make us run blankets or shields. Any word on the driver, you know his foot was on that gas pedal.
