NASCAR’s Tony Stewart ends busy week with end-over-end crash [Video]
After a hectic week in which Tony Stewart’s driver Ryan Newman won NASCAR’s Brickyard 400 and Stewart’s dirt track in Ohio held a NASCAR truck race that drew raves, one might think Stewart would chill out for a day or two.
But that’s not Tony Stewart, who will race just about anything with four wheels and on nearly any day of the week.
So Stewart was back in a sprint-car race Monday at Ohsweken Speedway in Ontario, Canada, when the 42-year-old’s car suddenly flipped end-over-end several times.
Stewart -- a three-time NASCAR Sprint Cup champion, co-owner of Stewart-Haas Racing and owner of Eldora Speedway in Rossburg, Ohio -- was not hurt and walked away from the crash.
After Newman won the Brickyard 400 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, Stewart told reporters he planned to be in a race car nearly every day this week, which ends with the next Cup race Sunday at Pocono Raceway in Pennsylvania.
“Can’t think of a better week to celebrate†Newman’s win, Stewart said.
