Tony Stewart hasn't changed

[ptown]

A few highlights.......Stewart finished a disappointing 17th in the 26-car main event late Thursday at Bubba Raceway Park, and he ended the night arguing with a fellow driver and complaining with officials. There were barricades alongside his stall, a little something extra to keep the near-capacity crowd a few feet away. Stewart declined photo and autograph requests between breaks, telling those who asked that he would do it all after the finale.

He eventually did, well after he climbed out of his car, walked to the scoring trailer and complained that fellow driver Chad Kemenah blocked him at the start of the 30-lap race. Stewart then hopped on a four-wheeler and drove through the pits to confront Kemenah. Stewart shook his head and waved his hand at Kemenah during their exchange.

Although he started his heat race from the pole, he faded to sixth, failed to qualify for the A Main and then slammed his helmet on a table in his hauler.

I doubt running NASCAR has done anything to help his sprint car driving skills. Maybe he should run weekly stuff somewhere where he's got a shot to win

I don't think anyone is surprised by his antics anymore and to think he has changed lol

Multi night races I've attended on dirt that he was apart of, its kinda been a standard of his to ask or place signs in his pit area for people to hold off on autographs till after the race on the final night.

Seems like a reasonable request to me, any fan worth a salt would do it anyway instead of harassing him while he's working... This is what catch fences are really for, to keep the knucklehead, less considerate fans at bay until the appropriate time. C'mon, be reasonable, would you walk in the operating room during heart surgery and ask the surgeon if you could do a selfie with him? No. So why is it such a crime to want to be left alone until after the work is done?

See the fake news has hit the dirt track world and the homers are taking it hook line and sinker.

Wow reporters must work for CNN. Chad questioned the line up and was making it three wide on the start. Tony was nice enough to give Chad the spot!!!!! Tony questioned it after the race. Tony Stewart is a close friend of the Kemenahs and can ask us anything. Tony has help me more than I can tell you and is a great friend to me and my family. When I was going thru hard times he was the guy who cared enought to get me thru it. I'm glad Chad and Tony weren't kissing after the race because I like my driver tough. This is a dirt sport not a ball dance. Change the tires, fuel the cars and lets race!
