Trace amounts of marijuana saved Tony Stewart from prison?

[Libertas]

Some of you may recall the story about famous racecar driver Tony Stewart at a dirt race gunning his engine at a driver who had gotten out of his car and was yelling at Tony for wrecking him, Tony gunned the sprint car and he hit and killed the 20 yr old racer.

Was just watching old news report on it and the grand jury decided not to file charges against Tony because they found "trace amounts" of marijuana in the victims system.

How absurd is that!

The guy Stewart ran over was just a good ole boy weekend racer that smoked weed on a regular basis and was making a spectacle of himself after Stewart spun him out.

Instead of safely leaving the race track he approached Stewart's moving race car th he way a weekend warrior often does. Waving his arms in a what the fuck manner while rushing towards Stewart's moving race car. Indicating that I will see you later in the pits.

Stewart gunned his engine probably to kick dirt up on the guy. Stewart's car fish tailed and the guy got ran over by Stewart's car.

Now had the guy who died not tried to be a tough guy who stood up to Tony Stewart. Something that had it not wound up being an accident would have made him a local legend. None of this would have happened.

Had Stewart not attempted to throws dirt on the guy by revving his engine none of this would have happened. Btw that can't be proven but it is what happened.

As for charges no way Stewart would have ever been convicted. Because the guy who died rushed Stewart's moving race car.

Imo the DA used the fact that the guy had pot in his system as a convenient excuse to make the entire thing go away.

Video of the accident clearly shows that Stewart wasn't at fault

[Libertas]

Tony was 100% at fault, well 95%, if the kid had not been standing on the track it would not have happened. And he should NOT have been on the track, but neither Kevin Ward Jr (victim) or anyone else on the track or in the stands could BELIEVE it when Tony gunned the engine ON PURPOSE so the rear end would SWING OUT toward the kid...You can hear the SURPRISE of the person filming it, because you do NOT do that!

But the video CLEARLY SHOWS him gun the engine right when he gets to the kid and that is why his car hit the kid. And this is typical Tony Stewart, any driver who has competed with him will ASSURE you that is what happened if you decide not to believe your own eyes.

These cars will swing the rear end out when you gun it, I have been to a hundred sprint car races. Tony KNEW the rear end would swing out towards the kid and that is WHY he did that.

For the faint of heart, this video shows him hitting the kid and it isnt pretty.

MY LINK actually shows the point of impact...sigh, do you cons EVER get tired of lying and being wrong?

Your video does NOT show when he hits him.

Mine does.

Is this how you lie about all the other things you lie about?

Do you want to ask the other racing expert here, Zowie, whether or not he sees in MY VIDEO where Tony purposely guns the engine, throwing the rear end out ON PURPOSE? You want to ask him if he sees what everyone sees and then ask him if Tony KNEW his rear end would swing out like that?

NOBODY thinks Tony wanted to kill him, but everyone who knows of his reputation and how these cars work, KNOWS he intended to throw a scare into the kid with the car when he gunned it.

I have no doubt that Stewart gunned the engine on purpose in order to kick dirt on the guy.
I also have no doubt that it is not provable in court.
I also have no doubt that the entire deal was caused by the guy being billy bad ass and rushing Stewart's car
The guy was 20 years old and made a bad judgment call as most of us have done. Unfortunately it resulted in his death. He was at fault plain and simple.

Now if you want to talk about pot and how ridiculous things are. I haven't smoked pot since 1987.
Because in order to get a decent job you have to be able to pass a drug test.
In trucking I am subject to random drug tests at any time. Once a company tested me 9 months in a row.
If I smoke 1 joint a month and get caught I lose my job pretty much forever.
In the other hand a truck driver can get shit faced drunk every night of the week and it is perfectly fine

Okay, I watched both videos. I’m not a race aficionado.

I can’t tell if Steward gunned it on purpose or not. The fact is the other driver jumped out into the middle of a fricken’ race! He could have been hit by ANYONE.

Since we can’t see it Stewart’s head, AND Stewart certainly didn’t target him, as it was the back of the car that hit him, not the front, I don’t see, from that video, there’s any way he’d get convicted of anything.

But it IS proof that there’s a lot of dumbasses in racing.
