It seems more probable to me that maybe it was just an accident? An error by a team member? I like to think that no one in the pits of a sprint car race could be that malicious...

If this was a "racing related" incident this is about as classless as Sides pulling the spark plug wire out a few months ago. Just punch him out if you need to. This has the possibility to kill some innocent family.

Then again it may have been just a fan who feels the need to immerse themselves in an event. Which would be so unfortunate as many of our favorite events allow that close interaction with the teams.

Hopefully it wasn't a mistake on the teams part, a late model team leaving Eldora last weekend put their hauler in a ditch, with the trailer landing on it's side. Luckily it was mostly cosmetic damage.

I remember a 28' racecar trailer coming unhooked in Cali a few years ago and killing a motorcyclist.
