Which makes me wonder if he can race any other way. Can you imagine ever seeing Tony Stewart in another deliberate on-track wreck or brawl? tossing another helmet? I don't think the reaction would be good...
This all makes me think of former F1 driver Stefan Johansson after he killed (or was involved with however you look at it) Jeff Krosnoff and a track worker while attempting a pass at the end of the Toronto street race. Johansson was roughly the same age Stewart is now when those guys died. He entered a few sports car races but basically stayed behind the scenes as a team owner.

The reason I clicked through to that fake story is that I thought that it sounded quite plausible for the very reasons that you mention. TS might retire after all, I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
