Throw Kurt Busch out of NASCAR

Kurt Busch was pretty good lastnight on Fast Cars & Superstars...

What a jerk. The guy has been driving like an idiot for this last year and this season the guy is out of control. He's driving around wrecking folks and even wrecked his own brother.

This last week he wrecked Tony Stewart in the #20 JGR car. Then the guy slams his car into the #20 while parked on Pit Row almost injuring a front tire changer and others.

NASCAR made him park his car the rest of the race but should suspend him a handful of races, multi-hundreds of thousand dollars and enough owner points to kill any chance of a chase position. Heck make his stupid a$$ sit out the rest of the season for all I care.

If you're gonna complain about Busch, you need to complain about Stewart too.

No, I don't.

This is not a "I like" or "I dislike" thread this is a Kurt Busch almost killed someone thread.

Stewart has caused SEVERAL wrecks with his wreckless driving. (funny how that works...he is wreckless, therefore he causes wrecks.) So if you're going to complain about 1, you need to complain about another. Also, Juan Pablo Montoya needs to be mentioned as well.

I understand you don't like Stewart, but Jeff Gordon is no saint behind the wheel either. There's a reason why fans and drivers alike either love or hate Gordon. He's a helluva driver, but he doesn't get a pass as the cleanest driver out there.

But, that's how racing is. No one is just going to pussyfoot around and let other guys pass them willy-nilly. These guys nose it out week in and week out. And occasionally wrecks happen...that's part of the sport. Emotions run wild, and will get the best from time to time. Stewart, Gordon, Junior, Kenseth...they've all done stupid shit on the track.

SBF's point is Kurt Busch took it too far. He could have just as easily waited until Tony got back out on the track to let him know he didn't like what was going on, but he decided to wait until Tony was at the most vulnerable. That is more wreckless than anything done on the race track to get an edge.

I agree...but if I had to pick the top 3 wreckless drivers, it would be Busch, Stewart and Montoya in no particular order. Gordon wouldn't make the top 10...there is an acceptable level of wrecklessness and most play that line, it's part of the game. But the three I mentioned go too far.

You're right...he did. That I'm not debating...but Stewart has done some crazy stuff too like getting out of his car and throwing his helmet at a car going by.
Do I think it's a totally BS thing to do (Busch), YES. DO I think it's bad for NASCAR...actually no. It brings fans to the game, but fining him was what should have happened (and docking points). I just don't want to see a driver get blasted for losing his head when it happens from a very big name on a regular basis. Why is Stewart exempt from stupidity, but not Busch? That's all I'm saying.

Looks like his brother is getting thrown out of his car. Smooty probably will enjoy that.
