Making a pass on someone is taunting and threatening?
LOL.

Kevin Harvick says NASCAR has told him he can’t touch Kyle Busch

LOUDON, N.H. – Kevin Harvick says he is racing with handcuffs when competing against rival Kyle Busch, whom he and his owner have feuded with since May.
Harvick, who finished second behind Busch in the New England 200 on Saturday, told his Nationwide Series team over his radio that he had to be careful around Busch and then confirmed afterward that NASCAR President Mike Helton had warned him at Michigan in June not to touch Busch on the track.
“I was told a few weeks ago that if we touched the 18 car [of Busch], we’d be parked,” Harvick said. “I’ve just got to be really careful. I would have liked to have gotten the track position and slid up and do what I needed to do.
“But I’ve just got to be really careful. That’s the way NASCAR put it to me.”
NASCAR spokesman Kristi King said if there was a conversation between Harvick and Helton, it would remain private. Busch said he has received no warning.
“I had a great race with Harvick – no problem,” Busch said. “I think that’s the way you should race. I raced him just as clean as he raced me, which is great.
“If he got a warning, I’m sorry he got a warning. I did not get a warning. So I do not know that I took advantage of him in any way. I raced hard, I raced clean and I ended up where I am.”
The two drivers have raced clean since coming off probation prior to Michigan. They were put on probation following Darlington where in that race, Harvick and Busch were involved in a crash that took out Harvick teammate Clint Bowyer and then Busch hooked Harvick. Following the race, Harvick got out of his car on pit road and went to punch Busch, who drove away – and into Harvick’s unmanned car.
Both drivers were put on probation. But four weeks later at Kansas, Harvick owner Richard Childress punched Busch following the Camping World Truck Series race.
The next week at Pocono, Harvick appeared to taunt Busch on the track by pinching him down near the apron early in the race and said afterward that he just wanted Busch to know he had one coming.The following week is when the warning came from Helton.
“It would have been a lot easier to win if you didn’t have handcuffs put on you, but that’s the way NASCAR said we had to do it,” Harvick said.
