????????????????

 

Just saw the video. Looks to me that the guy almost got hit by the car before Stewarts, then Stewart got him. Without a better angle, looks to me that unfortunately it may have been more the guy that got out of his car was at more fault than Stewart. Bad deal all around.

 

I couldn't believe what happened. You would think these drivers are trained to stay in the car until the track crew gets to them. I'm not a "Smoke" fan but I don't see anything there to believe it was at all his fault. I just can't wrap my head around what that guy was thinking running onto the track. Stupid.

 

Ya bad all around...it almost looks like Tony's rear slid up while maybe the driver got to close...you would of thunk he knew better to get out of his car and pull a Tony....he was only 20...I would think this will be the down slope to retirement for Tony

With the audio and video it sounds and looks like Mr. Stewart was trying to scare numb nuts be revving his engine and spinning the tires and got too close and killed numb nuts who should not have been oot of his car much less on the track. Still bad on him for sinning the tires and getting loose.

I thought it looked like he was trying to avoid him & the dipshit was trying to stop him. You play, you pay...

 

I just was having a little Facebook argument about this.

I don't watch racing, and I'm not an expert on Sprint cars, but I know enough about them and Tony to know he is not completely innocent.

First off Tony is very experienced with Sprint car racing, and knows how to drive them.

The video shows Tony pushing Kevin purposely up to the high side of the track and into the wall. This was an payback tactic by Tony and this clearly lays out the fact that these two drivers were already angry toward one another.

Kevin steps out and heads on the track to call Tony out for his bunk move. Accidents are accidents, but Tony wrecked Kevin on purpose.

He walks out on the track, under a caution now mind you, to show his disdain for his Tony's recklessness, as MANY DRIVERS HAVE DONE IN THE PAST. This is nothing new.

Multiple cars pass him with no problem, but then you hear Tony's car rev and slide into Kevin, thus hitting and launching him.

People are crying saying that spring cars steer with the throttle and that Tony was trying to avoid him. Yes, you are right, Sprint cars AT SPEED steer with the throttle, but they were under caution and Tony was only doing about 30-40 mph. Sprint cars can turn just fine at those speeds with the front axle.

Tony is a hothead who has taken his aggression out in similar fashion before like Kevin did last night. I don't think Tony meant to hit him, I believe it was a miscalculation to try to show his own anger toward him by revving and sliding close to scare him, but it ended in tragedy unfortunately.

TL;DR, an avoidable accident, with both sides at fault. But to wholly put either side at blame or innocence is naive and ignorant and apologetic.

 

Glad to see other NASCAR/Sprinter fans on here !! Apparently, Toe Cutter is a close match for Stewart except in temperment.

 

I was waiting for that.

 

What have you done Toe ound:

 

That's why you don't run out on to a race track when they are racing! Whether caution lap or not. Even in caution they are moving around 50/60mph on the first 1-2 laps. Plus for you guys that have never raced before, you have NO idea of what's going on out there inside the car and the drivers head let alone the racing moves/strategy on the track . One thing you DON'T except is someone running around on the race track!

It was a bad deal all the way around. I feel sorry for both and Kevins family. It should not have happened and Kevin should have been smart enough or level headed enough to know to stay in the car. Seems like he let his anger get the best of him and it did big time. RIP

 

I lived 10 miles away from Canandaigua for 23 years, here is text from local TV:

Deputies say Ward gestured at two cars on the track. The first car swerved out of Ward's way and avoided him. The second car, driven by Stewart, struck Ward on the track.
Ward was transported to F. F. Thompson Hospital, where he was pronounced dead at 11:15 p.m.
The director of Canandaigua Motorsports Park says the crash was a tragic accident. He saw the whole thing and says the pain is unbearable. He says he spent much of last night with Tony Stewart, and says Stewart is overcome with grief about what happened. The director says Steward didn’t see Ward before he hit him on the track. He says the big mistake came from Ward for going onto the track while the other drivers were still racing.
McDonald says the crash was an accident. He’s been inside sprint cars before, and it’s tough to see out.
“You can’t see out of a sprint car. Anyone that’s even been in a sprint car knows that you can’t see out the right hand side very well because they’re made to go left,”

 

Sounds right...wounder if Tony will retire now?

The odd part is that the sheeples are somehow convinced that these pro racers are all really nice guys that you take home to meet the folks when what they really want is to fuck your sister.

 

I'm confused by how you started this thread. You wrote "WTF Tony Stewart?" (I added a ? in for for ya) Pretty much assigning blame to him without taking in other factors. One of them would be using that grey matter between your ears and actually thinking for yourself. The main one would be that they were racing on a racetrack and Ward decided to run around it as cars were racing.

How about you are driving down the freeway in your car and a person (lets call him Bob Miller) walks in front of your vehicle and you run him over killing him. Would you think it is fair to start a newspaper headline as "Duccman murdered Bob Miller in cold blood and showed no remorse!" Then to go on about how you are driving a 4000 lb vehicle, and you "must" have tried to hit him intentionally otherwise Bob would still be alive. It doesn't matter that you were driving on a freeway doing 65MPH, you killed Bob, so you are now a vicious killer. You should not be driving a vehicle if you cannot stop from 65mph in order to avoid pedestrians on the freeway, or else we are going to skip the judge and jury and send you straight to jail as a MURDERER!

Does all that sounds "fair" to you Mr Duccman?

 

Well my sister is kind of hot. lol

But on topic - as much as the kid was wrong for getting out of his car, it happens often on the track, and usually very similar circumstances to this with one driver being pissed off at another.

 

Any rallye under Euro rules too. In the Baja the locals not only hover in the outsides of corners but sabotage the courses.

I sure wish the sheeples would at least try to differentiate between the public persona created by PR flacks and the real shit when the raceface is put on.

How many dudes have been into the wall for one reason or another and didn't get out of their rides under a yellow..
