Oops! NASCAR Driver Zooms From Pit Dragging a Car Jack With Him

NASCAR driver Parker Kligerman was ready to take off out of the pits Saturday at the 5-Hour Energy 200, but he didn't notice that he had a tag-along.

A jack used to bump up the car to allow the tires to be changed was wedged under the vehicle as he drove away on the Dover International Speedway. Kligerman made it about a mile before he turned off into the pit lane again to have the jack removed.

"That's not good. You don't want that," a NASCAR announcer said, noticing the jack.

The stuck tool did result in an injury for one of the tire changers, hitting him in the right calf as Klingerman initially pulled away. The announcer said the man was in a lot of pain.
