Let's get all the facts before we hang him on the DR but this is definitely one of the most bizarre stories I've read. I DGAS about NASCAR but I'll be up for a while following this

Just for perspective....... These are what they were racing. And not actual full-size cars for whatever thats worth.......
Kid that was injured is only 17 years old.
Hopefully this sounds worse than it actually is. Hopefully.

After the incident, racing for the evening was cancelled, police were dispatched and fans were told to leave the track.
First and foremost, let's hope the injured kid is alright.....
Beyond that primary concern......if this horrible story is true.....whether intentional or not, Tony Stewart is most likely in a long-term world of shite now.....and Racing too.....
Edit: Didn't happen in canada. Lots of false bullshite out there.

I admittedly don't know much about how the law would apply in this situation with an ongoing race, but it sure seems like Stewart could be charged with attempted (hopefully the kid pulls through) murder

I guess I'll be that guy, but it looks like the kid was stupid and got too close to the car. Tony hit the gas, but it is hardly clear whether he was trying to hit him or just stabbed the gas driving away. It wouldn't be unheard of, goosing it at someone throwing a hissy fit because they can't drive and want to blame it on you is a standard way to say "frick you, buddy" with your exhaust pipes and tires.
I'm going with tragic accident due to BOTH drivers being too hotheaded based on that video and no charges being filed.

Only good news is that it all happened so fast the guy never felt it. Looks like it broke his neck immediately.
