Getting out of your car and taunting racers because you have been "wronged" in some way is a learned behavior.

I actually have a little trouble saying it was tragic in my own mind. It would have been tragic if a wheel had come off and killed a kid in the stands. Demonstrating bravado and arrogance in the face of a mortal danger and getting your dick knocked in the dirt is pretty predictable.

I guess I just looked at the facts that he only just turned 20 years old a couple months ago, had pretty much just been bullied (run) into the wall by Stewart, and undoubtedly still had his adrenaline pumping at full tilt as a consequence. Under those circumstances, I'd have to be honest and say I actually may have been stupid enough to do the same when I but a 'teenager'. I'm not saying what he did wasn't totally suicidal, just that I can see how he may have gotten there. Such a waste.

That just looks like a guy who should be in an intermediate to advanced run group that is participating in a beginner group. Traffic like that happens in the HPDE 1&2 run groups at Sebring on the first two sessions of every single track weekend. I was actually fairly impressed by the number of point-by's he received in a timely fashion.
