Case was well known for substance abuse. Do coked up drivers take more risks in tight quarters and win more races?

[Fuguzzi]

Let's remember this about Case. Expert medical testimony was given that he missed 2 vital organs and the right lung by less than 2 centimeters which most likely would have resulted in his wife's death. That is sheer luck and chance when you plunge a 7inch steak knife into a woman's back. If not for this, he would still be in prison. For murder.

whats the point of this video? He is driving Anniecrombie. An all time great race mare   Every driver in that race would have won with her. In fact, most drivers who ever sat a bike would have won in that field with her.  So how is this Walter at his best?

Walter Case 2003 - 178 days of suspensions  Incredible!   Lets remember when he stabbed his estranged wife in the back, she had returned to the house to give him money for her share of training fees on horses they held together. He beat and kicked her all over the house till she ran out into the street screaming and he stabbed her in the back nearly killing her.

I felt sympathy for Walter twice. Once when his brother hung himself and the other when his young son, a new dad, died tragically in accident. Everything else Walter suffered he brought upon himself. 

Could he make horses go? HELL YEAH! but so what?

Where is his ex wife today. Did she recover ? What,was the point of this thread ? He is never going to race in New york or anywhere else but Maine.

She recovered and I hare saying this because it is my gut feeling and I dont know this for a fact. But if you go online and look at the messages of symparhy concerning the death of his son, it appears as if Walter is cut off from his family and they havent forgiven him. He is barely acknowledged in  their condolences. There are some very touching photos of Walter and his boys though

Not sure your gut is right my friend. A few years ago in Florida Walter was living with his sister and brother in law and speaking to his mom on a daily basis.

[Fuguzzi]

Go look at the tributes. You'll get a different impression at least at the time of his death. That was my only point. I raced with Walter for years NY metro circuit and couldn't care less about him. To  me, as a man, once you kick and punch and much less stab a woman, you dont exist as far as I am concerned. Who cares if he was living with Kelly and Dave. What does that prove?

[Fuguzzi]

Also, do you really think i was referring to his ancient Mom?

What about Luanne? Have they split?

Not looking for a fight with you my friend. It was Totally wrong what Walter did in his past. No excuse for it. People change as they grow older, some for better and some for worse. I also raced with Walter for years and ctually got to know him AFTER all the crap he pulled. Some people are sorry for the past. I myself feel he is one of them although he cant change what has happened and can just move forward.All that being said he was still one of the sports best drivers.
