Kyle Busch Goes From Good to Bad in Jeff Burton’s Book
Filed under: Clint Bowyer , Jeff Burton , Kyle Busch , NASCAR Fights , Sprint Cup , NASCAR , Charlotte Motor Speedway CONCORD, N.C. — Only four days ago, Jeff Burton was singing the praises of controversial, colorful Kyle Busch . After Sunday’s Coca-Cola 600 , Burton was ready to rip Busch’s lungs out. While older brother Kurt Busch was celebrating his first victory in NASCAR ‘s longest race, Kyle was getting yelled at by Burton on pit road, punctuated by Burton’s long finger, which he was pointing and jabbing in Busch’s direction as he let loose a string of insults and threats. A couple of crewmen kept them separated. Ah, but before we get to the Sunday quotes, let’s review what Burton had to say about Busch during a press conference Thursday here at Charlotte Motor Speedway. “Kyle, in my view, has never been a guy that wrecks other people,” Burton said. “There’s been a lot of guys that came in trying to be aggressive that have been taking more people out than Kyle ever did in my opinion. I really like racing with Kyle. We’ve had some really good knock-down, drag-out races, and when it’s over typically we’re all cool with it. I really like racing with him. I like racing with Kyle; I really do. I know he’s going to be aggressive and I know he’s going to come at me, but I’m good with that.” Uh-huh. During the final restart in Sunday’s race, Busch went three-wide into turn one, with Clint Bowyer (Burton’s teammate) on the inside, and Burton stuck on the outside. Busch and Burton touched and rubbed, and the contact cut down one of Burton’s tires, forcing him to pit and dropping him to a 25th-place finish. ? Permalink ?|? Email this ?|? Linking?Blogs ?|?
