Spectacular 21-car pileup at Daytona 500

My 13-year-old who is suddenly obsessed with cars* watched the end of the race, but decided that rallying is cooler – I’m certain he’s never watched a rally and when/where do they come on TV, anyway? But he must’ve liked the idea on paper and, more importantly to him, they race Subarus.

*If anything like that can be in the blood, then that is. His great-grandfather was a mechanic (IIRC the only one in their small town), his grandfather (my dad) grew up working in the shop**, and not a small amount of this rubbed off on me.

**One of my uncle’s projects (my dad was 8 years younger) was an “Oldsmoford,” Ford engine in an Oldsmobile body or was it vice-versa?
