Several laps later Dylan Still drives into turn 3 hard and tags Christopher Townsend sending Dylan for a nasty flip. As the POWRi Lonestar 600's Ultrashield Safety Crew rushed to check on driver. Christopher Townsend slows on the front straight. Suddenly a fire erupts. The fire due to a busted fuel line fitting dumping fuel on the car and driver. Christopher climbs out in a hurry.
