NASCAR Cup Series star Kyle Larson was one of the favorites to win the Eldora Million on July 13 at Eldora Speedway, but those dreams came to a halt about halfway through the 50-lap feature race.
Larson was involved in a crash on the restart immediately after the Lap 20 break during the million-dollar-race that Logan Schuchart went on to win. Fortunately, Larson and all the drivers involved exited their cars and were okay. The crash happened after Aaron Reutzel got sideways in turn one, catching Larson's car along with other cars driven by Gio Scelzi, Spencer Bayston and Lachlan McHugh.
