Darwin award nominee, definitely. Car racing, anger, stepping out onto a track AT NIGHT IN A BLACK JUMPSUIT.
Very sorry for his death, and for his family and friends, but he wasn't invincible, nor immortal.

I've watched the video about ten times over the past several days, and I can't help but think "getting famous by yelling at Tony Stewart" went terribly wrong.
I also heard of people claiming that Stewart hit him on purpose because he revved his motor in seconds before impact...maybe someone who knows more about it than me can correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure that those sprint cars, on the corners, can't turn without really gunning the gas. They are designed to slide out otherwise.
If that is true than it looks more to me like Stewart was gunning it and turning left to avoid the kid and the kid got too close and the ass end of the car caught him...and that was that.
Fish on...
Todd

You steer a sprint car as much with the throttle as you do with the steering wheel.

I'm a NASCAR fan. Not as dedicated as some but we've gone to the Vegas race in March 4 times and we watch the Cup and Nationwide races every weekend.
This wasn't on purpose and I doubt there will be any criminal action. But I don't think Stewarts career will survive this. NASCAR lives and dies based on the car sponsors. Will any company want to shell out millions to sponsor a car that Stewart drives? Doubtful.
There is a trend to younger drivers anyway. There are lots of good young drivers with clean reps who don't have the baggage that Stewart carries around.

There wont be a shortage of sponsors for a 3 time cup champ.

Pretty pathetic that there is a thread on this and the kid in St Louis gets no press here. There is no video of the kid in St.Louis, unlike this situation. Anything discussed on that matter is purely conjecture and a true he said/she said situation. Sad that he died, I am very sorry for his family and their loss, but villifying him or the officer involved when absolutely no verifiable facts are present is a waste of time and effort. About the best that could be said is that there were no winners in that situation. Oh, and feel free to start your own thread instead of bitching about it here.

Just need to get all those gun toting fruitcakes from the NRA down there to make sure all the young black kids are fully armed to protect themselves from the tyranny of the Gubmint.
Yeah, right.

Hopefully you didn't offend any pond scum or bacterium by comparing them to Sol Dunce...I'm sure they wouldn't be happy with the association.

I've noticed that...it's like he's proud of being the stupidest and most ignorant jackass on the entire board.
Weird thing to be so fuckin proud of, but I guess everybody's got to be good at something, and that's what he's got.

What does this have to do with Tony Stewart's crash?
Welcome back, Fish Prince. You create a fine derailment.

Classic Darkside post! We have epic retardation, one user had me nuke his account, racism, whiners, complainers, trolls and even a complaint to the mods. Honestly, I hope you all die. PS. The Darkside does *not* represent what PP is about nor does it relfect on it's members. If you seem to have sand in your vag, and apparently a lot of you do, DO NOT READ VISIT AND READ THE POSTS ON THE DARKSIDE. If Sol-Duc and Brewer really want to test the Mods (or me) out on their racist/humor rantings, post that crap on the main board. The one I actually look after.....and I'll boot your ass off this board faster than Strike Zone on a twinkie. Past that, I don't give a Fvck what happens here. Carry on..... Welcome back, Fish Prince. Wrong guess! Anyone else care to play? Fucksake. No wonder I left. You left? Oh crap, I don't think anyone noticed.

It all boils down to this - I'm right, everyone else is wrong, and anyone who disputes this is clearly a dumbfuck.
