Alex Bright is recovering after he suffered lung contusions and a broken wrist from a brutal accident Sunday night in AMSOIL USAC National Sprint Car Series Indiana Sprint Week at Lawrenceburg (Ind.) Speedway.

The Collegeville, Pa., racer lined up third to start the night's feature, and as the field was set to take the green, fourth-starting Jake Swanson appeared to have made contact with Bright's car. That sent Bright airborne and flipping multiple times down the speedway's frontstretch before his mangled car eventually landed on four wheels.

Bright was responsive and waving to fans when he was put on a stretcher and transported into an ambulance following the incident. He spent the night at a nearby hospital not far from the 3/8-mile oval.
