[QUOTE="JonDough, post: 2592431, member: 24427"] Well, i've been very deeply involved in actual racing, or have raced in several different types of organized motorsports. (Dirt Track toilet bowl racin' , drag racing, Street racing, motorcycle, etc..etc) #1 If anyone gets out of their car like that kid did YOU'RE A *******. He was showing his ass trying to act like a tough guy...there's no other way around it What the HELL was he gunna do?????. A human body CANNOT win a fight against a car...plain and simple!!! You stay in your **** untill the safety folks show up. That car is built to protect you. If he would have been in his car, he'd still be alive and probably have raced again that night after replacing some junk. (Yes, people get out, but you are not supposed to unless you're on fire or in imminent danger while staying in the car) If you wanna fight, go get him in the pits....that's what pit goons are for : ) #2 It kinda looks like the car was hit by the guy..or they at least met in the middle......just sayin. If THAT LITTLE bit of movement by TS's car got the kid, then he was WAYYYYYYYY too close to that car to NOT get hit. #3 That's a smalllllll track. Look at the amount of time it took to make a lap even under caution. And Stewart was behind another car...did the OTHER guy plan on running the kid over too? TS didn't line up on him or anything, the kid came and met the car, not the other way around. Intent just wasn't there. Yeah, Stewart has done the same thing on nascar tracks..and he was a ******* too. Now, if he would have been injured or killed during one of those tirades, Yep...it woulda been his fault unless someone was proved to have lined up on him and run him over, but he would have still been partially at fault for being out of his damned car. Whether TS was trying to spray him with dirt Or just swerving to try to miss him, or "seeing" the kid startled him or whatever isn't the issue...hell, there's a big chance he didn't even know the kid was there till it was too late...the issue was that kid was Out of his ride and WAY TOO DAMNED close to a group of moving cars and HE was the aggressor in the situation and his antics got him killed. HE was advancing into the car. He was RIGHT ON those cars and that was just too close and he paid for it. I Feel bad for everyone involved. [/QUOTE]
