NEW YORK -- Tony Danza got quite a scare when he and NASCAR star Rusty Wallace were racing go-karts during the taping of a segment for the nationally syndicated "The Tony Danza Show."

Danza was leading as they entered the final lap Monday morning on West 66th Street, the show said. After Wallace gave Danza's vehicle a little "bump and run," the 54-year-old talk-show host lost control of his go-kart, which flipped over.

"Although slightly worse for wear, Danza escaped with no injuries," the show said in a statement.

Wallace, who rushed to Danza's side after the crash, said, "I thought I killed ya," to which Danza responded, "Yeah ... just before you retire, 'I killed Tony Danza.'"

"I know you're tough, but that [was] ridiculous, man!" Wallace was quoted as saying.

The "DayTony 500" segment aired on Monday's show.

Watched it on sportscenter this morning... gotta love it after he rubs Tony off the road, Rusty's head never leaves the wreck as he goes off road...

I wonder if that happens during a real Nascar race?!
