Miraculously, there were no injuries after a bizarre incident on the 160th lap of the much-delayed Daytona 500 in which Colombian driver Juan Pablo Montoya's car fell apart at just the wrong moment: as he approached a track-drying truck, complete with jet fuel-powered turbine in the back.


Cue the explosion, spill of jet fuel everywhere, and a lot of fire. Will the race resume? We can't imagine how, but they're trying. [Fox]
