I know most of you don't likely care about NASCAR, but being a lifelong fan, I had to share this.
Last lap of a rain delayed 400 at Daytona last night. The race ended at 2:45 AM.
The wreck that happened at the Start/Finish line is becoming all too much the norm.
The car driven by Austin Dillon (#3) ended up on his roof after being flung into the catch fence. Another car that was damaged prior tried to evade the mangled mess, still ended up colliding with this car which everyone was already concerned that the driver was mortally injured.

Luckily he was able to walk away from this.

You can thank all the increases in safety technology that he's alive.
