With all that Tony has done for racing, charities & fellow racers why have no big names come out on his behave.

Looks like a media witch hunt.  Where's Kasey, Jeff, Kyle & Junior to defend him. Are they that easley silenced by

the NASCAR machine?

Maybe (without taking sides in the issue), maybe they are not certain with regards to whether or not he would do certain things in a given situation. With his track record it is not so easy to say that he did not simply make a HUGE mistake. I would be silent as well about the issue if I were in their position.

They aren't saying anything because they have very little to gain and everything to lose. That's why smart people keep their mouths shut when they don't know all the facts.

Great post. There is a reason we have two ears and one mouth.

Deduction? Logical conclusions? Well reasoned opinion based on facts?

Because they have integrity and don't want to speak ill of a young man that is deceased. I'm sure that after some time they will share their opinions. right now a lot of people are still processing what happened. I also think they are kind of waiting on Tony to see where he goes from here.

Most of what the main stream media is doing is character assassination of Tony. Nobody has all the facts yet so

anybody's conculsion on what happened is just guessing. I'm sayin his long time friend's could stand up for his 

character.

we all know the media tries to dramatize and do everything they can to keep a story going by feeding the torch and pitchfork crowd. the media plays whatever side of the story that will continue to perpetuate it whenever they can. sometime they will play both sides against each other, especially when it is non political.

there is no story for them to push if they don't hype it up. the only way they can hype this story is to find ways to feed the detractors and keep them in the game.

no conflict equals no drama and no drama doesn't get attention.

the media is sick and we all know it.

that is why when some cases go to trial those in the public that have been media driven instead of finding the facts can't believe someone is found not guilty when the media has been crucifying them.

but i think both dale jr and kasey have spoke about the situation and without knowing all the details they presented a narrative that explained how they thought this was a tragic accident.

dale jr said if tony was not involved no one outside the sport might have even heard about it.

kasey said vision is hampered in a sprint car and he could see how tony may have not even seen ward till it was too late for him to miss him.


to indy and beyond!!
