I hope no one takes this this wrong way but Ive been in racing my whole life, the number one rule dont get out of your car... especially in a dark suit, on a dark part of the track. I see this as this young kid who is a regular at that track thinking he was going to be the track hero by confronting Tony and he zig when he should have zag. Its very very sad and heartbreaking for all parties. that kid should have never gotten out of his car. If you watch the video again you will see that after he gets out of the car he walks down the track a bit and #45 car has to swerve around him at the last minute because he didnt see the kid either. If you know what a Sprint car looks like you will know that the wing on the right side of the car is lower, its not like you have a clear view of everything, also if you see what these drivers have on you would know that they cant turn their heads they have tearoffs on the visor of the helmet that is covered in mud, they dont have headlights. Like I said I am very sorry for the loss of this young kid and for his family and even for Tony and his crew... but I see this in a different way than most, i see this as a racing accident, I see this as a young inexperienced driver doing the absolute most stupidest thing a driver could do...
