The video is inconclusive from the angles I have seen.
Imagine that, accelerating in a race, whodathunk?
The kid got out of his vehicle in the middle of the track and stood in the middle of race traffic.

One can argue that was an attempt to get the car lower on the track.
Not being an expert on any of this, but I always assumed the driver’s vision was eclipsed by another auto until too late. Gunning engines probably goes with car racing.
That is exactly how you turn a dirt track Sprint car, it obvious you don’t know anything about dirt track racing, its called throttle steering.
