Our pioneering project aims to identify and catalogue every crash photo in racing history. We cannot do it alone, so if you have any spare time, view this forum and sign up to help!
Will leave it in for now so we can maybe figure out which picture goes there.

I think I have posted 20+ different pics over the years, from that particular accident, but going by the filename, I think it's probably this one:
will be removed (hidden) from the Motorsport Memorial after some time. It's not a racing school event, but a racing experience day event which is not eligible to our criteria.
I'm not urge to remove or remain Schoorstra at CPDB as it is better to save for discussion there. I just want to inform you.
In light of the new info, I think the entry should be removed.

Yeah, please go ahead and delete it. If you type his name into Google, our site is the first entry on the list.
I believe these two entries might be part of the same accident, cannot fully identify every driver involved, but it seems Farthing spun and then Blakley was turned into the outside wall as a result. Video footage at 0:05

This photo was posted at the top of the above CPdB entry. I have reason to believe it is not from the same wreck, due the side number on the car being noticeably larger than in the rest of the photos, and the number style being slightly different in general. By process of elimination, this pic is likely of Peters blowing an engine in the fall Dover race in 1983, his only other Cup start, where judging from the pic, he either got loose and saved it or spun fully as a result.

I believe you're right, car also has a small UNO logo on it during the crash, which isn't there in that picture
He's also posted one picture in which one of the cars was in a similar position in mid-air from the Karlskoga accident. But I can not find necessarily find a connection.
