to be fair, with the way that stupid fuck just marched right out onto the track. It could just as easily have been the car he had to jump out of the way for a few seconds before. Kid fucked up, paid for it.
Lots of ignorance out there. First, I don't for a second believe this was intentional. Second, these types of cars are steering not only with the steering wheel but also with the throttle. My guess is that Stewart saw the guy at the last second (considering the lighting and the color of his race suit and the background of the same color car) and gunned the engine to try and avoid. The kid was a complete moron for running down the track as he did. Heck the car (43?) right in front of Stewart's had to swerve to narrowly avoid him as well.
The comment about Stewart requesting that the right rear tire be changed is fucking ignorance to the max. No one, especially Stewart is going to try and cover up something like this. Couple that with the fact that they often change the tires after a race. They don't roll the car back to the hauler on the same tires used for racing. Also, if there was in fact a GoPro camera in Stewart's car you can be sure that Stewart will surely turn it over, willingly. That person who made these comments is a complete idiot.
My guess is that Stewart will be cleared of criminal charges but he will most likely face a wrongful death suit from the family of the other driver. This will cost him loads of money. He will also likely have some sponsor issues as well. I would guess that his Sprint Cup days will be coming to an end sooner or later.
I don't see a need for Tony to hit the throttle.
Those with experience with sports cars will tell you that you can hit the throttle to "drive" into the turn. To turn at high speed, maybe if you were trying to avoid something right in front of you.

I'm not a race car driver and even I know that high horsepower, dirt, and flooring it near another human equals bad things. If this isn't murder then it's negligent homicide.
Not sure but I think that you are supposed to drive out of the turn not into it. I have not watched the full video so I am not sure is this is applicable.
Pretty obvious Tony was sending a message by flooring it. I don't think he meant to hit him but as a result of him showing his ass he killed someone. Sure the kid shares some blame but he didn't do anything that hasn't been done on many racetracks across the country.

The video is horrific and very stragic.. Tony Stewart is going to jail for a long time. Only 17. RIP. Nascar needs to also institute a new rule giving any driver that walks out of the car onto the track an automatic 3 race suspension
You're an idiot.

I reported your post, hopefully the mods will take action, the only content of your post is an insult, and nothing else,
you should also know not to walk on a race track with multiple cars around just to show your frustration to another driver, what he did was bizarre, race drivers should stay on the car and get out of the track once it's safe, not walk towards the cars on the middle of race track.
Somehow I doubt that being called an "idiot" is going to land OT in any trouble, if things were that strict in OT half the members would be banned.
Proof? I know it happens. But it's not exactly common. Especially not to the extent this kid went to... at night, wearing all black, on a dark brown dirt track...Tony would certainly have expected that the other driver would be waiting for him. This is very common, and Tony has done the same thing himself when he was mad at another driver.
