Harrison Burton will have to start from the rear of the field in Sunday's Pennzoil 400, after a vicious crash in Saturday's NASCAR Cup Series practice from Las Vegas Motor Speedway, where he totaled his No. 21 Ford Mustang.
If Harrison Burton and Wood Brothers Racing are to score a solid finish in Sunday's NASCAR Cup Series event at Las Vegas, they're going to have lots of adversity to overcome.
Burton, in his second-year of competition in the NASCAR Cup Series, was headed down the frontstretch at full-speed when fluid from his No. 21 Ford Mustang got on his right-side tires, sending him for a ride in the first corner.
For a second, it looked like Burton was going to be able to pull off an incredible save, and salvage his primary car for Sunday's 400-mile contest. However, mid-drift, the car overcorrected, and slammed into the outside wall head-on.
At this time, Wood Brothers Racing has yet to confirm if they'll move to a backup car. However, the extensive damage to the No. 21 seems like it'd be difficult to fix in an adequate manner for Sunday's race.
