You & I are seeing the
fully striped’ driving suit from the side-—with lighting from that angle.
What did all the drivers see? The FRONT of the suit—which we cannot see & we don’t know if there were ANY stripes on it.
I don’t think those stripes are REFLECTIVE, either, but it wouldn’t have reflected anything from Winged Sprint car because hey don’t have headlights.
I don’t think the divers could see Ward.
The only racing cars I know of which have lights are the off-road racers, such as Baja 1000 & Daytona/LeMans 24 hour cars.
Most of the ‘headlights’ you see on other race cars are just painted on.
This was a night race. With winged Sprint cars—and that wing cuts off side vision to the right side. The kid hit was wearing black driving suit. The drivers were NEVER expecting a PEDESTRIAN on the track.
