BARRE, Vt. (AP) — Vermont officials say two people were hurt when a car hurtled over a retaining wall during a qualifying heat for the 41st Labor Day Classic at Thunder Road.
Officials say both of the injured were track officials, one from Thunder Road and another from the American-Canadian tour.
Officials said in a statement that both suffered leg injuries.
Fans described scary moments on Sunday during the qualify race in Barre. A medical helicopter was summoned to transport one of the victims.
Madison Urie told WCAX-TV it was “the worst thing I’ve seen in my entire life.” Track officials postponed further racing after the crash.
