A seemingly innocuous Crazy Figure 8 race crash at Anderson Speedway quickly escalates into a brawl

The crash that happens in this video around the 48 second mark looks mild enough, but matters soon escalate. After waving his arms angrily at competitor Shawn Cullen, Jeffrey Swinford decided to drive over the bonnet of the former’s car.

Naturally, Cullen didn’t take too kindly to this, and responded by climbing out, hurling his helmet to the ground and pummeling Swinford through the car’s window, stopping only when a police officer intervened. With a Taser.

According to a local report, both were arrested, with Swinford charged for “misdemeanor criminal recklessness,” while Cullen was slapped with a disorderly conduct citation. The owner of Anderson Speedway, Indiana has vowed to bar Swinford from the track “as long as I own it, and I plan to own it for a long time.”

We challenge you to find a racing crash altercation that’s weirder than this…

This happened in my home town! And as I’m typing this, I’m realizing that’s probably not something to be proud of 😂😂

I never thought a race series that mostly involves turning left would make the racers extremely aggressive 😅

What is it about oval racing which makes the drivers want to fight everyone after every single racing incident

“The owner of Anderson Speedway, Indiana has vowed to bar Swinford from the track” Didn’t you rather mean “ban”? Matt Robinson
