Opinion: Aggressive Driving


This years Daytona 500 lacked everything but the "Big One", but it still ended with plenty of tore up cars and drivers pointing fingers. In almost every case one man seemed to be in the middle, 2005 champion Tony Stewart. First him and Jeff Gordon ran themselves up into the wall early in the race, then he ran Matt Kenseth into the grass ruining Kenseth's chances at winning (he had a car capable), and finally late in the race Stewart had a run in with Kyle Busch.

The question is who was right? Remember a week before this Stewart was complaining of aggressive driving after the Bud Shootout. He claims that the Kenseth incident was just that an accident. What do you think?

Looks to me like he just pulled down on Kenseth. The big bad bully Tony Stewart.

I think he's a whiner. He didn't like getting pushed around a little in the Bud Shootout, so he goes and cries to NASCAR. Then he turns around and is in the middle of three different altercations during the 500. He's known for aggressive driving, so I was suprised he complained to NASCAR, but not suprised about what happened in the race.

Looks like he was just a sore loser after the Shootout and found something to complain about. He needs to just shut up and drive. He seems to have alot more success when he does that.

It seems like he did that side drafting as a way to move drivers over, out of their lines in order for himself to advance. Him knowing that the other driver would move over, in an effort to not mess up their equipment. Kenseth was an exception, he did not give like others (Johnson, Hamlin, etc).

I was very upset with the way Tony acted. I said it would be something if he is the first one NASCAR gets for rough driving after he complained. It looks like it is going to be an interesting year.
