WARNING,, ^^ Video above shows Tony Stuart killing a man. It is graphic.


I'm sure you've all heard he ran over and killed this kid last night. I have this to say. As a motorsports enthusiast with my finger firmly on the do's and don'ts pulse of racing. He was the single biggest reason I quit watching nascar. I personally think it's a great thing I don't put a lot of time and zero dollars into it. But I was a big Earnhart senior fan. Anyhow, I realize this will see the eyes of smoke fans. And to you I am sorry,,not for my opinion. This guy is a hands down,certified,arrogant ,whining sniveling bawl baby. I watched as his sponsors did NOTHING over the years , As Nascar slapped his hands for some of his worst tantrums.. Am I alone in the thought. That no matter how HARD you have worked,,sacrificed,,blah,blah,blah... Once you get a ride in Nascar and you are being paid MILLIONS of dollars,,TENS of millions of dollars.. With THAT, comes the responsibility to be a MAN. To get out of a car you were just wrongly wrecked in and "put on a professional face" I hear his fans,,well, he tells it like it is! No,he is a whiner. HE is allowed to wrong time after time,,but God forbid it is done to HIM!... He is one HECK of a hard worker and race car driver,and now,murderer. Yep,,dramatic perhaps,but nonetheless. Without smokes entitled temper,this 20 yo kid would be alive. Nope, he should not have went out on the track like that.

But,as I've seen a thousand times,sometimes that's what angered racers do. So,does he give him some room,or get an inch from him and goose it!? In a SPRINT CAR! A vehicle designed to Snap left as soon as it is touched.... Unreal. This baby has raced these cars all over the world,and there are few at it better than him . Did he think,I'll show this kid,I'll kill him. No, but he damn sure knew what he was about to do was border line extremely dangerous. The sherrifs office is bought and paid for. Not pressing charges!! Now lets watch the DA's office explain away how poor tony had no idea the dangers involved with driving a Sprint car up that close to a human being and GASSING it... Prayers certainly go out to the victims family.. This ALL could have and should have been stomped out in anger management classes and being fired,decades ago.

That video is absolutely disgusting and I am personally offended that it's OK for people to publicly view such material. I will personally show Tony Stewart how I feel about him if I ever see him in person.

[atc007]

I agree,and I assume it will be pulled down from the internet. . Guys, it breaks this kids back,shoulder,collar bone everything. ANYONE around motorsports,,especially Sprint cars KNOWS exactly what happened here. I am sorry for posting it,,but ,,,this joker is gonna walk,,at least he has for the time being..

[fabiodriven]

He will pay in this life or the next, but he will pay. I hope to run into him. I'm on the verge of tears.

Wow I read about this last night before going to bed but did not realize there was a video and after seeing it I kind of wish I hadn't.

[tripledog]

Looks like Tony's temper got the best of him. Wonder how he'll try and talk his way out of this one. What a scumbag!

[The_Steve_Man]

The white car about hit him first.

[6speedthumper]

What a piece of sh!t... Poor lighting my azz, you can see clear as day that it was an intentional move Stuart made. If we can see that on what was probably a cell phone, then he should have had no problem seeing this guy. Regardless if the kid was stupid to get out of his car. I would watch Nascar on and off when The Intimidator was alive, but have not since his passing...

My brother suggested that it looked like Tony was trying to slide his car and roost the kid but it went terribly awry. From memory, as I refuse to ever watch that video again, I might agree with that. Either way, Kevin should have never exited the car, this much is true. As someone who does horse play from time to time I can see what Tony was trying to do if in fact he was trying to roost the kid. However, Kevin will never sit at another Thanksgiving dinner, have a beer with his buddies, enjoy the comfort of a woman, or breathe another breath again. I wasn't kidding when I said I was fighting back the tears earlier. I've teared up multiple times today as this plays over and over in my head, which is exactly why you do not play around on the race track like that. There is nothing in this world that will bring Kevin back and my thoughts are with his family. I don't know the first thing about Tony or Nascar, but Bill suggests he's a bit of an undesirable character anyways. I would like to see him step down from racing personally. I would shun him myself if he were my peer. It's not up to me what anyone else does or how they should think, but I know how I would handle things if I were part of the brass at Nascar or if I owned a racetrack. Horrible things like that happen in war, but that's not why people go racing on a Saturday night, which makes it exponentially more sad.

My thoughts are with his family and will be of Kevin in the off chance I ever meet Tony in person.

[Dirtcrasher]

He may get smacked with manslaughter this time; And rightfully so!

He's always been a little prick, a whining little losing baby. He wants everybody to play by his rules and when he's not happy and smacks helmets Adam loves Adam in on. I bet that poor kid had put his life, sweat, blood and tears into getting as far as he had gotten further into racing, what a shame. I think it's time he gets a vacation from all race track driving.

View from outside the bubble: Not a nascar fan, dont follow the nascar gossip, dont read the nascar enquirer

what i saw in the video is a driver spun out, then got out of his car and intentionally began dodging cars in the middle of a RACETRACK during a RACE. he got hit by a car.

i feel bad for everyone, but i think you guys are going way overkill saying that because of this guys past, he intentionally hit and killed a guy (who WAS intentionally standing on the track in front of EVERYONE) during a race.

[DohcBikes]

I'm on my phone right now so I can't post all my thoughts, but I will say that Ive spent THOUSANDS of hours at dirt tracks and tony was trying to roost him. The kid should've sat his ass in the car and respected to veteran driver, and the rest of the racers. He endangered others lives as well by walking on the track, clearly searching for Stewarts car.

Rule #1. Dont walk down the middle of an open wheel dirt track. On top of that, he's picking his way through race traffic so he can approach and taunt veteran racer tony stewart, a racer known to be aggressive. Tony kicked the rear to roost him, and the kid kept approaching, and low and behold, he got hit.

You say exiting the car happens all the time, NO IT DOESNT. There's why. Standing on a dirt track is moronic...roosting a guy you just spun out, DOES happen. Racing is DANGEROUS. You might even die.

I feel super bad for the kid and his family, but his own actions and temper got him killed out there. It'll be a damn shame if everybody blames Tony for driving his race car around the track.

I don't know the first thing about Tony Stewart or Nascar either. I may be a bit more sensitive than most as I am somewhat "unplugged" from society. I don't watch TV ever and haven't for over a year nor do I listen to radio. I don't read the newspaper or watch the news. Most other people do however, which desensitizes them greatly. Regardless of whether or not Kevin was wrong in exiting his car, he certainly did not deserve the ultimate punishment, being dispatched from this planet in a horribly gruesome fashion in front of all the world to gawk at, for getting out of his car. What if this young man were your brother or your son and he were killed like this by another human being who was playing around on a caution lap, yes a caution lap, where extra caution is exercised and speeds reduced in order for the track to be cleared.

I am extra sensitive by choice. I want to enjoy what this world has to offer me but the flip side of that is how easy it is for me to put myself in someone else's shoes whether the situation be good or bad, which is why I don't watch the news, which makes me more sensitive, and so on. I might suggest, if you have the ability, you put yourself in the shoes of Kevin's brother or father, or his girlfriend or best friend, and imagine that another man who carelessly wiped Kevin off the face of the earth while playing around is walking around living the life of Riley while your loved one is dead and gone forever without ever being able to say goodbye. All because another man wasn't being cautious on a caution lap, but rather playing around instead. A young man is dead because of this. That's not TV or a horror movie, that's a young man's life coming to an end before your eyes all in the name of carelessness. A man was in control of that car. It could have been stopped or driven right by, but it was steered into another man and ended his life. Do you understand this?

I have watched the video too.. and as a old school sprint car driver .. I saw the rear of the car pitch to the LEFT when he hit the gas not right like he was trying to roost him,,,, MAYBE just maybe tony saw him and realized he was to close and tried to spin the car out away from him?????? different people see different things,,, to think it was done intentionally is ridiculous,,,,,,,,

[fabiodriven]

I have made myself different from most and that choice is mine to make. I don't fault anyone else for their respective points of view. That is why I rarely go on Facebook and up until now I've used 3ww as my news and social media. I am moving out of state to a very unpopulated area to further disconnect myself. I am different, no fault of anyone else and no hard feelings, but I feel as though I may have to now disconnect myself from this place as well. 3ww has been my last place of recognition, where I am accepted and I fit in, the only social media I frequent, my news, and my family. It may be time to part ways though. This world is conditioned to watch events such as these unfold without flinching. Cameras watching soldiers take each other's lives like gladiators in the coliseum and sporting events where a man is penalized with his life for making a mistake. There was a man at the controls of that car and the death he caused was unwarranted, meaningless, and completely avoidable, and it's clear that my view is the less popular one, which is why I've separated myself from society as much as I have. I've come to find that when people tell me I'm crazy or I'm weird or question what it is I'm doing, my persistence in my plotted course nearly always pays off.

You all enjoy your gore at the cost of another man's life.
