Kyle Busch is NASCAR’s most hated driver. And he loves it. Viciously booed during pre-race introductions, Busch soaked up the venom by encouraging Saturday night’s crowd at Darlington Raceway to keep it coming. And when he heard a member of Dale Earnhardt Jr.’s crew jeer him as he passed by on the parade lap, Busch smugly flipped him the bird.
The (Associated Press/ESPN.com), folks have asked if NASCAR will fine Busch. I watched and re-wathed the beginning of the race and all the pre-race ceramonies and didn’t see it, it must not have made it on TV because if it did we would have heard a ton more about it and I’m sure heavy fines would have followed. From what I understand the only ones to see it was an Associated Press Reporter and the crew member it was aimed at.
I hope Kyle keeps it up and jams it up their you know what on Sunday. Kyle’s an excellent driver maybe a little too wild but this is racing, what do people expect. Many of Dale Jr.’s fans have made Kyle the “most hated driver” because Kyle raced Dale a little too hard in Martinsville. Too Bad, So Sad…That’s all I’ve got to say. It’s racing and that was a racing deal. It was the end of the race you should be racing your guts out Kyle was Dale wasn’t.
This season Kyle is kicking ass and taking names, you can’t give Kyle a break on the track or he’ll beat you. Kyle will win a lot of races this year but could have a few DNF’s by the time its done. That could be what cost him a championship. Dale Jr. running great probably this is the best start of a season he’s had, he’s running smart. He’s not been overly agressive and that might cost him a win or two but his consistantcy is what going to put him in position to win championships.
Dale jr’s fan should be happy now he’s running smart and consistant. The best thing for him is for his fans to not cause a distraction trying to read something into his and Kyles relationship. When his fans do the media takes over distract jr. and that is the last thing he needs. There’s 41 other out on the track focusing on one will only hurt his chances to be a championship contender.
I hate to say it, I hope I’m wrong but Kyle just might self destruct.
