I am not a huge fan/follower of NASCAR, but If someone asks me which driver I know from NASCAR, Tony Stewart is at the top of my list. He has been doing this for almost 16 years, he has definitely contribute positive things to the sport. It is sad to see that after a couple of years of struggle he has decided to end his career. In my opinion I always want great guys to end their careers at their best just because I think it is frustrating for them and their fans to watch them not perform at the top of their capabilities. 

I guess that is life, and everything has a cycle. He will definitely will be remember as a legend of the sport. I am sure he will retire from NASCAR but will always be involved, even off the tracks. 

 

 

What do you guys think about his retirement.

I think Stewart is done. He had a great career.

I hate these retirement tours though. If your quitting just quit and save us a year of "Tony's last appearance at....".

The choice to do the a final year was predicated on current sponsor commitments.  Jenna Fryer has a good piece on what lead up to the announcement.  http://racing.ap.org...reedom-he-seeks
