Read the posts in the thread. Sprint cars are steered with the wheel and the throttle and it's very likely Tony didn't even see the guy until it was too late.

I can’t remember the rally driver I heard say it but the quote was, “your hands deal in feet and your feet deal in inches.” Meaning that the steering wheel gets you pointed in the general direction then the turn is finished off with the throttle. This works for any racing with rear wheel drive vehicles but is exaggerated in the dirt which is part of the appeal of sprint cars. They spend more time sideways than straight.

I would tell you that sprint cars aren't near as hard to control at 35 than 80-120. and I could tell you that because im not guessing. |

Ok. That still doesn't change my opinion that Stewart didn't do anything wrong nor will he see consequences from this.
