btw... I saw Wild Child kill a spectator at Silver Dollar Gold Cup. Landed 20 ft from me and my best friend in the Pit grandstands. have also seen female run across silver dollar and get hit by guys rear wheel coming out of 2. She flipped several times and came straight down. Kevin ward got sucked under when the throttle got burped. and literally still got flung forward... That's some gnarly torque.
Im just tossing out observations.
this my last post in this thread I fell like one of those sick f*cks who get pleasure out of this posting the video
ITS EVERYWHERE, I jumped the gun because the second one I posted SOUNDED different, perfect timing with the rev
as the rear tire hits
the second one I got off of Yahoo news, I embed it , but it was a U-tube from a law firm. wonder what their motives are posting
it. $$$
It's sad anyway you look @ it. last year right @ this time, TS broke his leg. now this.

We all ride bikes here and understand sliding on dirt. I think Tony saw him at the last second and instinctively gassed it to attempt to countersteer down (away) from Ward. A bit like squaring off a corner. If you think about it that is what you would do . I know I would . The car has lurched and it didn't work as expected .
Speculation lies at the moment of impact. Ward approached #14, which is indisputable. The question is, how was Stewart navigating his vehicle in the seconds prior. Other drivers said they saw Ward on the track before entering the turn (race was under caution). These guys have thousands of race hours, so at 40 MPH they can look outside the cockpit for distant obstacles and obstructions. Stewart likely saw Ward as well, but probably didn't expect him to decend down the track.
A layman might surmise that two large egos clashed at exactly the wrong moment. Ward aggressively approached the #14, just as Stewart gave him a little warning rev. Tony didn't expect Ward to get so close, and Ward never thought Stewart's back end would slide up the track. Both guys made mistakes, so neither is 100% liable. But one is dead, and the other, a wealthy multi-time champion, isn't. Even if a jury finds Stewart only 20% culpable, that could result in a large financial fine and loss of sponsorships. Stewart-Haas Racing may not survive this situation.

I don't see how people could tell if Tony hit the throttle since they were on the backstretch wouldn't the camera pick up audio from the front stretch?
He should have gotten in front of this sunday morning. How,I dont know ,but silence has ruined him.
When there is the potential for civil/criminal charges, the best thing to do is to keep quiet.
Tony is fighting for much more than his reputation at this point. The fans that are worth keeping around are the ones that can wait for an explanation.
I had one of these.

Plus, he had no idea the shit storm coming either.
He wont race Michigan this weekend either I'd say.
Was listening in on a talk show on this today and every single racer that called in said that they tell these guys at the drivers meetings to STAY IN YOU CAR unless deemed an absolute emergency! (like in the case of fire).
If he really wanted to duke it out with Stewert he should have thought about this a little better..... its pretty hard when the other guy is strapped into a 800 hp go cart!
Remember these cars have a mechanical fuel injection systems .. meaning they "load up" just like a two stroke ... the throttles have to be "blipped" during yellows to keep the cylinders cleaned out. ...
At our track If you got out of your car anywhere on the racing surface without the obvious reasons it was an automatic "don't come back for 2 weeks". A second time was see you next season.
Sad for all involved.

Everyone needs to listen to this.
He goosed it to change direction (left) - not to hit the guy but those tyres don't respond well at low speed, they need inertia, and it bounced - like a mini high side
he had to give it to Hulk. East bay owns it. (Ocala speedway) I just moved back to Ohio from Florida.
Tony's life is ruined, he won't set foot in a sprint car race. I hope he doesn't sell Eldora.
Maybe he will race Nascar again. I really don't care.
Tony got to be hurting bad, either way Tony did NOT mean to hit the guy or (you know...) Tony's not going to jail. Tony is going
to be light in the wallet.
this is all just what i'm thinking. no one has got to read this
enough about Tony, here's the Ward family
If drifting is the only way these cars are steered and the steering wheel and front wheels don't do it, I wana see how they load these suckers up on the trailer and get back to their pits. I can just imagine the pit racing and mayhem to ensue after the races... if that is the case.. Which I know, is false.
The Williams death has given news shows something else to run 24/7, maybe the flame under Tony will subside.
Even if the sheriff finds nothing Tony may never be able to race dirt again ,damn shame.
