Just to add to this, Letterman is a classless oaf and has earned the title many times over. E Jr. has the class his daddy never had. And just for the record, if did something as idiotic as Bush did I would feel the same way. It was classless but to be expected from the immature cry baby. Jr. may lose but he has the good grace and manners to at least stick around for an interview instead of running off pouting about it. I would rather support a man who knows how to lose with grace than a highly talented whiner. JMO, I'm sure others will vary.

No one else should have qualms with what he did either. it was "his" win and "his" trophy. What he chose to do with his trophy was "his" business. When did society decide it had the right to dictate what people do with their own property? Especially when it impacts no one else in any negative way? Seems to me too many think "their" way is the only correct way and decree foul on others too quickly.
Kyle Busch got fired so junior could race with a top notch team and things ended up backfiring for Junior while Kyle shined brighter and brighter. He has every reason to be a little cocky. IMO this is why a lot of people dislike kyle. He proved that Junior wasn't half the racer his daddy was. heck...not half the racer kyle is either.

Wouldn't matter to me who smashed the guitar. It was a classless act. Not surprising coming from him.

For me is was not a matter of 'class'. To me it was a matter of ignorance. He had no idea that this guitar was of solid construction, certainly not the type that lends itself to a good smashing show.
You can bet he won't try it again, not with this type of guitar.
He's only 24 years old,.... got a lot to learn.
BTW he finished 2nd in the truck race, and 2nd in the Nationwide race. I wonder how he'll do in the Cup race on Sunday?

I don't question his talent behind the wheel, but one day I do hope Kyle Busch has to answer that question about why he did what he did to that guitar to his son or daughter like I had to explain it to my kids.
