"Will keep everyone updated on the healing process but just thankful it wasn’t worse."
Anderson was in fourth place when his truck spun across the track and flames began shooting out from his vehicle. The Chevrolet spun toward an interior wall and Anderson appeared to be halfway out his window when the truck came to a rest.
He scrambled to the top of the wall as emergency medical personnel reached him.
He was later seen being airlifted to the hospital.
