Sprint car crash at race track in Australia sends vehicles tumbling through the air: Video

LARA, Australia (KABC) -- Drivers and spectators at a sprint car race in Australia managed to escape injury after a dramatic crash sent multiple vehicles tumbling through the air.

The pileup occurred Sunday during a race at the Avalon Raceway in Lara, a small town southwest of Melbourne.

Video captured by a person in the stands shows a car driven by Tim Hutchins involved in a collision that saw Hutchins's car flip into the air before being stopped by a catch fence as spectators ran for cover.

The race was ultimately stopped. Crews used a crane to remove at least one car from the mangled catch fence.

A Facebook page for Hutchins Motorsport T7 said their driver was "a little stiff and sore but soldiering on as he always does."
