VIDEO: Young Driver Suffers Horror Crash at Bristol Motor Speedway With NASCAR Dirt Race Lurking Around the Corner

Karter Stark, a young racecar driver, recently suffered a terrifying crash at the Bristol Motor Speedway, a track NASCAR will visit in the coming weeks. The 13-year-old driver was taking part in the Bristol Dirt Nationals. Stark, who was behind the wheel of car No.92, made contact with No.2 as he was coming to the bottom from a high-speed turn, while No.2 was going to the top in front of him.

This collective momentum pushes No.92 into the wall, after which it bounced back and barrel-rolled around half a dozen times before coming to a halt in the middle of the track a few seconds later. Fortunately, Karter Stark was uninjured in this incident.

NASCAR superstar set to race on Bristol dirt track before Cup Series race

NASCAR de facto dirt racing king, Kyle Larson, was recently announced to be an entry in the Karl Kustoms Bristol Dirt Nationals.

Along with this, World Of Outlaws officials also announced that the defending Cup champion will enter both the Bristol Bash Super Late Model as well as the Sprint Car races that will take place between April 28 to April 30.

The No.5 driver has already registered a World Of Outlaws win this season. He took his sprint car to victory at Thunderdome Speedway dirt track a few weeks ago.

As for the coming dirt race schedule, Kyle Larson will look to use the upcoming race at Bristol to not only prepare for the NASCAR dirt race in mid-April but also to build up some positive momentum in general for his title-defending season.

This is because, following his win in Fontana, the Hendrick driver has failed to capitalize on the momentum boost, something he made a habit of doing last season.
