On September 10th 1987, Roberto Guerrero suffered a critical cranial injury during a tire test at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. The injury occurred when a tire struck him in the head after crashing into the outside wall. The wreck kept him sidelined for the rest of the '87 CART season.

I feel this would be a fairly important addition to the IMS non-fatal project on the CPDB; unfortunately I've been unable to locate any crash/aftermath photos of the incident. Traditional and non-traditional avenues have yielded nothing on my end, so I figured I might have better luck calling on fellow members for help. Thanks in advance.
