WSMC racer Lazarus Landin was seriously injured in a first-lap, first-turn multi-bike crash at Willow Springs Raceway Sunday, and was evacuated by helicopter.

Landin was apparently hit by at least one other bike in the incident, which involved four or five motorcycles and happened in the 750cc Modified Production race at the Rosamond, California racetrack.

Further information on Landin’s condition was not available at post time.
