Myatt Snider was in a fiery crash on the final lap of the Xfinity race at Daytona, Fla. on Saturday night, but he came away mostly unharmed.
Snider was around seventh or eighth in the race when he lost control and went right into the wall. That caused his car to flip vertically and start getting smashed around, with the engine detaching.
Here is video of the crash.

Amazingly, Snider was able to walk out of the car mostly unharmed.
Snider said after the race that his left leg was “a little banged up,” and he will have it checked out further. He also praised NASCAR’s safety measures as helping him come away in such great condition after going upside down for the first time in his career.
Myatt Snider says his left leg is "a little banged up," and that he will see how it feels tomorrow to see if it requires further evaluation.
It's the first time he's been upside down, so why not Daytona.
