Yikes!!! NOT GOOD, better that “Perfect” though...
And remember we are Pitting backwards this Race so if you want things to "look normal" set up 3 mirrors to watch TV so the image is reflected once to get it the right way then again to get closer to a viewing zone and a 3rd mirror to put the Race running the right direction and can be viewed from the couch.
So above mirror setting would look like this:
[tv]
/ mirror1
\ mirror2
/ mirror3

There were 5 cautions for 14 laps and 15 lead changes among 11 leaders. Complete results are on the Watkins Glen race results page (pdf). (8-9-2014)
???!!!!!
Tony Stewart hits walking driver with sprint car, witnesses say; authorities investigating
We're gonna have a manslaughter trial.
Smoke is done.
I haven’t seen it confirmed but it’s all over twitter and other media that Ward has died. Can’t find confirmation via Google or Bing.
I can't fathom Tony doing this on purpose
(LdSentinal- I’m just copied & pasted here because I’m in shock at the whole incedent)
Tony won’t race because of what happened. Don’t try to play NASCAR Official unless You can prove that You are one.
I will not get into any arguments about this.
I was not there and don’t think You were so let’s both reserve judgement based off of 1 video at this time please.
Prayers out to the Kevin Ward Family and Tony as well.
The video has been pulled from Youtube, sorry I didn’t download it but I was in shock.
I have saved a copy of the Spectator Video of this incident. Will post it later if it gets "scrubbed" from .net.
I am at a loss for words right now and am going to take a break.
Please Pray for Kevin Ward, His Family and for Tony Stewart.
As far as I have seen Tony will not be Racing at the Glenn Today.
To: stormer Joseph Johnson @JOENOLES 53s Max Papis is driving for Stewarts car tomorrow (today). CONFIRMED. 9 posted on Sunday, August 10, 2014 2:08:22 AM by LdSentinal
I have read here on FR that some are outright saying that Tony Murdered Kevin Ward.
I don't believe that one bit.
Innocent until proven guilty.
Someone has the stench of a lawyer from what I see.
Just My Personal opinion on that.
I am at a loss for anymore words or comment at this time.
Going to try and get a nap in.
RIP Kevin and Prayers going out to Your Family and Friends. And Tony Stewart as well.
Going to go clamp My head in a vise to hopefully stop it from spinning...
Oh, what devastating news for everyone involved. All we can do is pray right now for everyone involved.
Yes, prayers up indeed!
Saw the report just before leaving work around midnight. Kept checking at home...thought there was some mistake. Didn’t get to sleep until after 2 waiting for details.
Up early still on my mind. No matter what turns out this is not going to end well for anyone involved.
Finally watched the videos. This is a tough call. Ward did needlessly put himself in harm’s way. Tony ...and the rest of the field for that matter... should have slowed. But it is a short dirt track, maybe not possible.
Bad, no tragic, decisions all around.
I’ll probably take heat for saying this but if Tony is to continue his racing career he has to get back on the horse ASAP. Not today but soon.
Request that we pray for all involved in the incident; many are hurting in ways we cannot imagine right now. Wisdom for those investigating. Comfort for Kevin Ward's family. Peace for Tony.
The latest is that Max Papis will replace Tony for the race today. Weather looks clear for the day.
Off to a quick hike in the National Park - might be back for race time!
