If you haven’t seen this video, it’s a horrendous crash from today’s speed qualifying for the Texas Motor Speedway race on Sunday at 2pm Eastern. It’s incredible that Michael was able to walk away from the crash with little to no difficulty. It is amazing how far NASCAR has come in the past years since Dale Earnhardt left us.

Edit:  Follow-up Interview

This is our first lagniappe post. Wait. What was that? What does lagniappe mean? It is a term I grew up with in New Orleans that was used mainly by storeowners who gave “something extra”, “a small gift” to customers with their purchases. I’ve always enjoyed that term as the memories of the “something extras” were often of small business owners who didn’t appear to have very much but, in that true New Orleans spirit, gave a little extra from the heart, in addition to just conducting good business.

In this case, your something extra today is Nascar race results (unofficial).
