All right I’ll admit it, I’m not really a big fan of NASCAR, I’m more into baseball. But after seeing this video, I feel like I’ve been watching the wrong sport all this time. Basically, a NASCAR race quickly turns into a violent fight after a frustrated driver literally began punching one of his rivals through his car window. Luckily for him, the netting was still on when he began hitting him. He went on to kick the car and was later carried off by staff members.

In the video you can see a bystander stepping in and grabbing an angry Grady from behind, picking him up, and then carrying him away.

Andrew Grady takes out his frustration on Davey Callihan after an accident in Heat 1@FloRacing pic.twitter.com/DeBkUQ27Xy
Driver Andrew Grady can be seen in the video Swinging his fist through the window of Davie Callihan’s car. This after an accident took them both out of the race at Martinsville Speedway located in Virginia over the weekend. Grady claims Callahan flipped him off when he came and decided to go over to discuss what just happened that led to the crash.
But, Calihan stated that he didn’t do that and that Grady just randomly started to attack him. “I mean… he wasn’t close, he dive-bombed me, he hooked me… and I wanted to talk to him and he flipped me off. So I started Mike Tyson-ing his head,” Grady said after the fight. “You’re in a big-boy sport. When you wreck a man, you can take a grown-man a** whippin’ that’s how I feel about it.”

He says there are dumbasses who have no business driving a Lawn Mower much less a Late Model at Martinsville.

But according to Callihan, things didn’t quite go that way. “I never flipped anybody off. He just starts punching me inside the race car, so… I understand he’s frustrated, but again it’s for the transfer spot and we were just fighting for our life,” he noted.
No other violence was reported after the two parted ways, but this is just too funny. Another example of how men don’t think with their heads, but rather just act on instinct. I would be angry too if I got flipped off but come on you’re a full adult, man. Don’t be a sour player.
Also, shout out to that guy who just casually picked him up and began walking with him as if he were a baby. Glorious.
