I have no doubt Tony COULD HAVE avoided hitting Kevin if he wanted to.

Have you ever driven a sprint car on dirt? Have you ever driven any vehicle fast on dirt? Do you have any idea what a car with slicks handles like at 50 mph on wet dirt?

Sprint cars are designed to turn left and have the rear end slide out to the right.

Approaching one from the upper side of the track is a really bad idea, because just about any action the driver of the car takes pushes the back end of the car out to the right.

how fast do they go under caution?

His real mistake is thinking that a guy who slammed him into the wall on purpose wouldn’t do it again

I’ve driven my Subaru STI very fast on dirt. It’s not a sprint car, but it had cojones and is a top-end rally car. They are controllable and predictable. What’s not predictable is having a pedestrian on a race track.
