Robots ruin all the fun of a good adventure.

 Has Darren Rovell come out with the monetary figures that Stewart might lose if sponsors pull out? It's important I know as soon as possible.

Do we really need two threads? The NASCAR thread is on top of this and most discussion that I would trust is in there.

Considering this wasn't a NASCAR event, I'd say it deserves this.





Just for help, this is a picture of the car used in the incident.

e: for clarity, that is not Kevin Ward Jr. near the rear right tire.

 mods please update thread title by removing 'may have'


It's good to know that in this day and age, Tony Stewart confirmed the scientific hypothesis that if you do not move away from the path of a human being that your racing vehicle will kill them.

Statement from Tony Stewart's sponsor Bass Pro Shops: "All of us at Bass Pro Shops are all deeply saddened about last night's tragic accident at Canandaigua Motorsports Park. We send our thoughts and prayers to the family and friends of sprint car competitor Kevin Ward Jr and also to Tony Stewart and everyone at Stewart-Haas Racing."

It's not a full answer I wanted, but I'm sure he's crunching those numbers. About the murderer. Named Tony Stewart.

So despite many peoples claims that the race was under caution and therefore Stewart should have been under complete control of the car, it's just not supported by facts.

Obviously you have not read this thread.

Ive drove 360 sprints with ASCS. I think I know a thing or two about racing cars. At medium to high speeds, yes, you have to use the throttle to get through a turn. At low speeds they turn very easily, its just wobbly as hell.
