Check out the last ten or so laps! Erik Jones ran his ass off to get the job done Busch was putting everything he had on him. Very good finish. That kid is way up on the list of people with a future in racing.
Busch can be a prick, but he generally gives what he gets etc. Sounded t me like he and TJ had some baggage from their prior relationship and when TJ body checked him in one - Kyle dumped him in three. Sucks that it wiped out most of the competition.
Steve Wallace throwing a hammer at Kyle Busch - that about sums him up.
Just watched it again, if they ever repave that place - it will be ruined. The old asphalt causes so many good things from a racing perspective. Two grooves and the tire strategy is huge there. Man i have to get back there next year.
As brutal as the TJ incident was (happened right in front of me) give Kyle some credit for running Jones as hard and as clean as he did. And I am NOT a Kyle fan. Trust that was not an easy post race interview to do. (Especially with all the Boo’s going on in the background. Hell idk if the fans could even hear Kyle it was pretty loud. )
After Busch wrecked everybody he attempted to play nice. He rubbed the kid several times but never tried to take him out. If he had wiped the kid out I don’t think any his truck or car woud have been usable after the mob with sticks, torches and battering rams got through “talking” to him.
I had a half mile walk to the car and every 20 steps some guy behind me was hollering “Kyle Busch got beat by a 16 year old kid”. Over and over, get the word out buddy!
Th other races were good as well.
