Ty Gibbs uninjured in airborne sprint car crash, flipping into the fence

Ty Gibbs was competing in the 2026 High Limit Racing season-opener at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway dirt track on Thursday Night, which is just outside the 1.5-mile intermediate track where the NASCAR Cup Series will be racing this weekend.

Driving a 410 winged sprint car, Gibbs was running fourth when he made contact with Corey Day -- a regular in the NASCAR O'Reilly Auto Parts Series. Competing for Chad Boat Industries, he drove over the right-rear wheel of Day's machine, and his own #84 went up on its side before rolling multiple times at the exit of Turn 2. The car slammed the catch-fencing before falling back to the ground.
