NASCAR driver Johnny Benson was in critical condition after a fiery crash at ISMA Supermodifieds Race at Berlin Raceway in Marne, Michigan last night.
ABC affiliate WZZM13 reported a spokeswoman for the hospital where Benson was treated said he is in serious but stable condition. Benson’s condition probably could be improved sometime Sunday morning.
On the first lap of the Saturday’s race, Johnny Benson’s super modified car became engulfed in flames after it had a collision with Larry Lehnert’s and came to rest on the track off Turn 3.
