Racecar driver Stefan Wilson<\/strong> just revealed he needed some serious hardware put into his back — including rods and screws — to fix gnarly injuries he suffered during an Indy 500 practice crash last month.<\/p>\n

The 33-year-old announced the update on his social media page late Wednesday night … explaining docs had to affix two titanium rods and a slew of other metal onto his spine in order to stabilize it after he injured it on the Indianapolis Motor Speedway track on May 22.<\/p>\n

Wilson said he couldn’t even get out of bed — let alone take steps — following the surgery … but he told his fans in his Wednesday update that he’s now doing better.<\/p>\n

In fact, the driver said he actually got up to walk 4.5 miles this week!<\/p>\n

“Pleased with how far I’ve come so far,” Wilson said.<\/p>\n

It’s all pretty miraculous … when you consider how bad the crash looked.<\/p>\n

You’ll recall, Katherine Legge<\/strong> struck Wilson from behind during the practice run … sending him into a wall. He ended up fracturing his 12th thoracic vertebra … and was raced to the hospital<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Wilson, though, is clearly on the road to recovery … and he said his focus has now shifted to getting back to the Indy 500 in 2024.<\/p>\n

Get well soon, Stefan!<\/p>\n
