Step over the line and pay the consequences. It was only a matter of time before one of these guys would cross it.

Couldn't have happend to a better guy.
I say, park him for the rest of the season along with a 100K fine and can't attend any Nascar functions for the rest of 2011, including the awards ceremonies .
JMO of course.
C'mon Bug, tell us how you really feel! :LOL::LOL:
I don't agree with a lot of the stuff that NASCAR rules on, but this time I do!!!! Watched the truck race last night and Busch had one of his temper tantrums and took Hornady out of the race, and more importantly out of the truck championship race!!!! Well done, NASCAR!!!!! The dang kid is one heck of a good racer and even showed glimpses of maturing a bit this season then pulled this bs....I lost all of the respect I had began to gain for him... Don't care who you are or how good you are, crap like that is inexcusable. If I had my way, he'd of been out for the rest of the season!!!
I just did :LOL::LOL:.
Don't get me wrong. Ron has done his share of dirty driving also from time to time. Especially on re-starts. A couple of years ago he dumped Mark Martin with only a handfull of laps left. I thought he should be parked then also. Even before the restart the announcers were saying that Ron was going to wreck Mark and that is just what he did.
Ron did not deserve this though.
I totaly agree with Nascar on there ruling BUT I'd ban him from racing anything but go carts from now on,,,Anyone whos goes after another driver UNDER YELLOW dosen't need to be out there.He will kill some one some day. Like Dave I actualy thought he was growing up..Sure proved a lot of people wrong. Hes just a loose(and loaded) cannon
A guy with his talent shouldn't have to do crap like what he did last night. Hornaday is no angel, but it looks like his contact with Busch was a racing incident, not a purposeful hit - and at lap 15!!
I feel that Busch has had more then his share of 'incidents' and needs some of Gibbs "help" and maybe out the door as not meeting personal expectations. Anger management class will NOT help this jerk.
I thought it was a great decision to sit is butt down for a timeout. The best part is it effects his Chase standings which was a good call on NASCAR let the all drivers know, poor decisions in racing will effect all that drivers (in this case busch) racing
I agree with the decision also! He is to good a driver to need to resort to this low down deed.
As far as Hornaday, he deserves it in spades! Championship or not! He's as slimy and dirty as they come and I'll sleep better tonite knowing he got some payback!
Like alot of you, I was getting some trust & respect for Kyle and was hoping he could hold it together and clinch a championship for himself.
Don't know if J.Gibbs & Toyota will tolerate this one!
From what I hear KB's toast for the cup chase, and his sponsor is veeeeeeery unhappy with his lack of judgement. He may be done, done or looking for another ride.
I finished off the m & m' s anyway
Gezzz Jerry-could you please just send me just the red onces?:whacked::LOL:Quote:

I caught the end of it, heck of a good race!!!! Just got in the house now and watching the pre-race for the cup cars, the promoter at Dallas sure has had a lot of fun with the Cousin Carl vs Smoke deal!!!!!
Its just gone 10am here,,I need a coffee,,:D.Saw the build up for the race,from the start,,and saw the ''incident'' you guys spoke of..I dont know the guy,,but he seems to be a petulant little poop,,great driver he may be..He reminds me of the short ass who tangled with Marcos Ambrose,several years back,on Mt.Panorama.. Well,thats not the first time,by the sund of it that Busch has upset the ''management'' so to speak..Probably wont be his last either..Oh well,watch a few laps and go back to work..:D
They occasionally are showing a shot of Kyle sitting on the pit box pouting--Wonder if he's learned anything from sitting this race out, or if it's all still someone else's fault that he had to do what he did??? Kid could be even better if he would learn to leave his temper tantrums in the motor home when he climbs in the car!!!!!
And Smoke wins Texas & Cousing Carl in second! Now we have a chase / race!!! WOW!
I did see Kyle on the box. With Joe G. right on his shoulder. He was not having any fun! Shame that so much talent is wrapped up in such an im-mature young man!
Yuppers, Smoke smoked 'em today.... This could really come down to be the best chase ever... Of course Smoke has always been "my man" way back to the days he drove USAC cars for Bob East!!!! IMO the closest thing to AJ Foyt and some of the other "real racers" we've had in years!!!!!
My only "issue" with Stewart is his EGO! It's as big as his car! 8-)
Yeah, but it ain't braggin' if you can do it!!!!!
The only thing that could have been better is if someone took him out behind the garage and gave him a good ol' butt kickin'! Although this might do a better job of getting his attention.
Maybe losing his ride gets his attention? Harsh, but may be what it takes....
So true! 8-) I wonder if his head will get inside the motor home tonite! ROFL!Quote:

I'd bet that it's the KB Motorsports PR - pretty sure that Gibbs is pretty well ticked with him along with all of the sponsors who were looking for a Ford/Chevy/Toyota fight to the finish. Pretty hollow words when you consider the impact of the actions.Quote:

him and ron live in the same neighborhood---I think I read somewhere that Ron was going to go viait him on Monday(today) so watch the news items later on
:LOL::LOL: Dont know what Hornady looks like,,but I got the feeling you are right on the button with that ,34,,,KB reminds me of a little neighborhood bully who picks on kids half his size..then runs away..Mind you,I could be wrong,its happened before...:LOL:Quote:

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. -- NASCAR has fined Kyle Busch $50,000 and placed him on probation until Dec. 31 for his actions during the Nov. 4 Camping World Truck Series race at Texas Motor Speedway.
Busch violated Section 12-1 (actions detrimental to stock car racing) of the 2011 NASCAR Rule Book. NASCAR took immediate action, parking Busch for the remainder of Friday night's event and maintaining the parked position for the Nationwide and Sprint Cup events scheduled for Saturday and Sunday at Texas Motor Speedway. On Monday, the parking directive was lifted by NASCAR.
In issuing Monday's penalty, NASCAR went on to say that "if during the remaining NASCAR events in 2011 there is another action by the competitor that is deemed by NASCAR officials as detrimental to stock car racing or to NASCAR, or is disruptive to the orderly conduct of an event, the competitor will be suspended indefinitely from NASCAR."
Along with "time served", the last paragraph and what may be coming from his sponsers and his owner... it could prove costly! We'll see what comes of it.Quote:

Then there is like you said, whatever is still coming from his sponsers and JGR.
I really thought that after he got married in the off season he would straighten up a bit and it did seem to work for a while. Maybe it was just time for an explosion and then the calm. Who knows.
As for Ron, he is a good sized guy and I think he could pick Kyle like a pimple if he wanted to.
I don't know the history.Has NASCAR ever ban a driver forever??.
Yes they have but it has always been for substance abuse though.
They've made other drivers sit out a race for similar stupid acts.... as for the probation part, everybody who's anybody has been on that list.... Kyle just got off it early this season.... Kids gonna find himself back in Vegas pedalin' dirt cars again if he doesn't learn this time!!!!
Coach Gibbs has a lot of experience putting up with tantrum prone Prima Donna's from his football days.... Just not sure how much longer the money will allow him to keep Kyle!!!!
