i am curious to know what kind of vision or view the drivers have out of these vehicles. Unless Stewart was told via radio that Ward was on the track, Stewart might have not seen Ward until the last second.

I agree with you that Stewart’s vision might have been impaired - due to the vehicle itself, plus the dim lighting on the track. I’m not that familiar with this style of vehicle - regarding the driver’s ability to see more than just a small front view of the track. That track really needed much better lighting.

It’s funny, but on the NASCAR tracks - the one nighttime race they have is lit up like it’s daylight.
