I have never seen so many Jr whinners. Please. Jr moved down trying to get Kyle to lift because he new that was the only way he could win. Kyle did not lift and everyone in the grandstand other than Jr new he would not. Neither would have Jr, Tony, Jeff or Dale Sr. had they been in the same situation.

It was not intentional, Jr got what he ask for. It happens almost every time in short track racing. Jr fans, your driver does not own the track and deserved no special treatment. Get over it. He got beat, period by the driver that replaced him.

For the record, all the post calling Kyle dangerous and reckless were all fans of Dale Earnhart Sn, who was the most reckless, dangerous driver who intentional wrecked more people than anyone in Nascar history. You cannot have it both ways. You had no ploblem with him being reckless but let someone wreck his son and you have a whinner day. Also for the record, I thought Dale Sr was the greatest driver who ever lived.

Nobody is whining. Just calling a spade a spade.

Yeah, right, Liriope.

All one has to do is go back and watch the video.

I am not even a diehard Jr. fan, just a Nascar fan who has seen Shrub(Kyle Busch) do this kind of thing since he got into Nascar. He is a talented driver whose maturity level hasn't quite reached adulthood. He pulls the same stunts in the Nationwide series. When his antics work he tries to play it cool. When they don't he cries like a baby.

However, like Cloud Dancer said, it does sell tickets. Maybe during the next race Shrub will get booted into the wall. Tune in next week..........

Is anybody going to watch Wind Tunnel, tonight? I'm interested in seeing what Dave Dispane will say about Jr and the whole incident. He will show the videos, with different angles of the event. And, he'll take calls/comments.

You do not make it clear to whom your replying to? It's clear who your a fan of. As I stated, Kyle is wreckless and immature, he even took himself and brother out and there is no telling how many other dozens of wrecks he caused. Did you listen to his interview where he shows his maturity level so clearly the other night and you want to talk about whinnng????

Same reason Hendrix let him go, totally unprofessional actions and is a risk and does not represent what the Hendrix team is about.

I agree, I did not see the wreck at the end being either one of their faults but I knew it was coming because it also has the same out come. Kyle wrecks his competition in order to take a win. Doesn't matter if it's Jr. or his own brother or team mate.

NASCAR ought to fine the heck out of Joe Gibbs racing for pulling the stunt they did. (Hamlin) and I am a Denny fan, just what he did was low.

If you are referring to me, I agree with you 100 percent.

My "yeah, right" was directed at the poster calling us whiners.

Yep and he even said so the other nite during the Nationwide race. He said he would wreck whoever he wanted to to get a win.

First of all I am not a Kyle fan, only a racing fan. My favorite driver is Mark Martin, the cleanest driver of all times. I was also a Dale Sr fan, the dirtest driver of all time. Kyle has wreck less people than Tony Stewart for one. I even like Jr, but not all the excuses his fans have for him everytime he does not win.

Again, Stewart, Gordon, Johnson, Hamlin and probably ever driver would have raced Jr the same way. It was "not" intentional and every announcer made that clear and was strickly a racing incident. It got lots of attention "only" because the announcers knew Jr fans would see it only one way. They have been proven correct. If they pole all the drivers, they will agree it was only a racing incident that could be assigned to either driver.

I love short track racing and in short track racing this happens all the time. As far as Hamlin stopping, you have a real right to complain.
