Frankie Muniz transported to hospital after Daytona practice crash

On Wednesday, a crash during practice at Daytona International Speedway prompted 12 Ford drivers to race in a charity event in honor of Veterans Day.

Muniz was set to race for Team Air Force, alongside NASCAR Cup Series driver Austin Cindric. In addition to his GT4 America campaign, the actor also participates in the NASCAR Truck Series, competing for Team Reaume.
