Qualifying for the Daytona 500 occurred over the weekend, and, since there wasn't much going on in Gainesville and it's a little less than two hours away from his house, Will Muschamp thought he'd find out if he's not good at something else by attempting to qualify for the Great American Race. And, as you will see, he has now added something else to his NO GOOD THIS AT list.
Here's Muschamp coming out of turn two:
A few points of order about this crash:
-Muschamp overshot Daytona Beach by multiple time zones and about 6,100 miles
-To be fair though, Sochi, if it has enough airbrush t-shirt stands, could be the Daytona Beach of Russia
-Even though he doesn't know the difference between auto racing and bobsledding, he can still lock up a sponsorship pretty quickly, which might explain why he appears to be a good recruiter
-Kudos to Muschamp for recognizing there was a good chance everyone was going to see the bottom of the sled during the run and getting the sponsor's name painted there
-One impressive feat in the crash is that he rode that section of plywood at the top of the turn pretty well
-Those two track officials must have seen it all in their lives because they didn't even flinch at the sight of a sled that was carrying live human beings and not meant to fly, come completely off the surface on which it was meant to glide and start flying sideways, followed by the driver's head smashing into a wall of ice and the sled skidding on its top down the track
-Amazingly, in real life, the women inside the sled walked away, which is probably more than Muschamp's head coaching career will be able to do when he is finally asked to leave Gainesville
