And a media frenzy to persecute an innocent celebrity in a sport they know nothing about and are too stupid to understand you can't apply the dynamic attributes of a street car to that of a race car, let alone a Sprint car on a sprint track.

There's no issue here. The kid got out of his car on a race track, decided to confront a car (thinking he's confronting the driver), and put himself in a situation to get killed. Story over.

Stop turning this thing into the JFK assassination...
If sprint cars have terrible visibility, it applies to all of them, not just Tonys car, right?
So answer this question, how come everybody else, who was driving under the yellow flag, with reduced speed, about 40mph i believe, was able to see that kid, but Tony did not?
