I haven't seen anyone suggest the kid's actions weren't dumb and didn't contribute to it

but there's some real fire in the smoke (to pardon the pun) about what happened right as Stewart passed him. It sure seems like he gunned the engine right as he was going by, and if he did and that's what caused him to fishtail, well, he's got some serious questions to answer. It's not the actions of someone who just got into an unfortunate accident.

Responses:

To me, it didn't seem like he had actually fishtailed until after he'd hit him. My interpretation is it was a result of it, not the cause of it. -- nm - Ender Aug 10, 13:47 2
- Watching it frame by frame, this appears to be exactly the case. nm - Dignan Aug 10, 14:12
- The video is maddeningly unclear at that precise moment. -- nm - Reagen Aug 10, 13:57
I think he was trying to spray him with dirt. Just my hunch -- nm - Bacon Aug 10, 13:39
I think he didn't see him till the last possible second and hit the gas quick to knock out the rear end - J Aug 10, 13:35
