Terrible.
But not surprising with sprint cars. Those are so dangerous. Can go so fast, one little bump is all it takes.

There was a driver at the track I go to who was severely burned last year in a sprint car.

I like watching the late models - they go around the dirt pretty good

Stewart has metal rod placed in second surgery
A specialist in North Carolina placed a stabilizing metal rod inside the fractured tibia Thursday, according to a statement from the Stewart-Haas Racing team. The operation was a follow-up to a preliminary surgery Tuesday that stabilized and cleaned the Grade 2 injury, the team said.
Stewart remains hospitalized for observation
