Stewart has been known to get out of his car and he once threw his helmet at Matt Kenseth's windshield on the track. I blame him for establishing the current bravado culture in NASCAR.

I agree that this shite has to end. Banning would be appropriate for what has now proven to be a potentially deadly act. I doubt that anyone would do it for a while but over time I can see it coming back because the customers love it.

Whether it is Stewart or anyone that gets out of their car they should be banned or severely punished to the point where they don't ever think of doing it again. My comments to TS are strictly to this event.

I watched the video again and when he hits the guy it was insane how far down the track he had gone and made the space the drivers had to work with far too small. This isn't baseball where you can run out on the field and argue with an umpire, the umpire isn't driving a few thousand pounds of metal at high speed.

There is just no excuse for leaving your car on a race track outside of a fire or personal safety issue. Period. You can't stop stupid people from being stupid but you can damn sure penalize the behavior.

The moment that guy left his car to yell at TS he took his life in his own hands. As to whether or not TS could have missed him or not that is something between him and God at this point.
