Several years ago there was a wreck I believe at Indy where the front of the car was gone and the driver's feet were out on the track sliding long surface after the collision and he survived so it is possible to make it through a wreck like that. Roy
Is that the road Jeff Bridges (Porsche) and James Woods (Ferrari) raced each other in the movie Against all Odds?Edit; Race shown in this trailer;https://www.imdb.com/video/vi2476185625?playlistId=tt0086859&ref_=tt_ov_vi
Never heard the Eddie Paul connection with this movie (not to say he wasn't involved) but he did do several TV cars, over the years. We used to go to his shop, in the '80s, to get a magazine project car painted, and to see what he had in the works.

Specifically, the area covered West Sunset Boulevard between Roxbury Drive and South Beverly Glen Boulevard and along Holmby Hills. The production shut down this stretch of the boulevard at fifteen minute intervals for filming of the exciting car race with the two sports cars.According to The '80s Movies Rewind website, "the black Ferrari 308 and red Porsche in the film's famous chase scene were specially modified vehicles from Customs By Eddie Paul in El Segundo, CA [California, USA]. The cars were modified for high-speed driving with special onboard camera mounts".
