Guy might as well have walked down a live gun range.
This, exactly.
Contrary to your username, you don't exactly enjoy facts.
I wouldn't be surprised about a suit. But I am not sure on what grounds.
Stewart has had a history of letting his temper get him. What we see here doesn't suggest to me that it's the case this time. NASCAR and other governing bodies have been all too tolerant of public displays of bad behavior over the years.
Tony had clearly slowed down per the Caution. But caution does not mean look out for the dude in black in the middle of the track. It means look out for a stopped car or debris.
taste the queen? have you seen the queen these days?
truth is track owners/organizations turn a blind eye to these infantile displays because it adds some drama for the fans. it actually happens quite often. it's time to make a change and say that if you get out of your car you are done for the season. there's no excuse for grown people acting like babies in a…
camera is positioned outside the car, and lower than the driver's actual eye level.
Good. I'm glad he isn't. I'm not a big Tony Stewart (or NASCAR) fan and I'm not convinced he did absolutely nothing wrong regarding this crash, but I don't think Steart deserves to be literally burned at the stake the way most people on the internet believe he should. Obviously the death of anyone is a terrible…
This is unsurprising - they have no motive or intent. Chances are, Tony may not have even seen the kid until it was too late. Would be a different story if the kid stayed in or next to his car and Tony decided to go out of the caution line and ram him. Kid came down to where the cars were and put himself in danger.…
I just don't see (short of an in-cabin GoPro of Stewart yelling "DIEEE!" before that throttle blip) that there is enough evidence that shows this is anything more than an accident in a sport where drivers know they're risking their lives.
you also realize cameras make things appear brighter than they actually are right?
I have never heard a sprint car driver say stable, or easy to see out of, when describing their experience. I'm sure it is just a walk in the park. /s
Stewart had cars in front of him, it's entirely possible that his view was blocked and he wasn't expecting a guy to be standing on the track where he shouldn't of been.
Sorry, but your picture shows the instant that the 45 swerved to avoid Ward, and the instant that Tony hit him. Those tires are staggered and when he hit Ward it turned the car to the right. They are at different points on the track because one was actively moving in that comparison down the track to avoid the guy…
He was no higher than the 45 car that was in front of him. Who, by the way, had to swerve to avoid Ward who literally jumped more than halfway down the track into oncoming cars and only missed him by probably no more than three feet. That was the first time he was almost run over by a car, and that car swerved to…
There's an expectation that a driver wouldn't be out of his car so him being on that line is not unusual. He wasn't all that close, AND Ward quite literally jumped over halfway down the track into oncoming cars.
You can't do a full stop on a yellow caution course. Other cars will hit you from behind.
