Kyle Busch's decision to stop before the race ended
- Thread starter Charlie Spencer
- Start date
Obviously KB is leading because he finishes in the top 10 and top 5 more than any other drivers.
I only hope at homestead he gets another top 10.
Imagine that, a race car driver striving for good finishes

Kyle made a smart move. Why cause more chaos of a possible caution? Nothing to lose, nothing to gain as he's already advanced to the next round.
Not to mention a possible suspension failure in a fast section like the back straight is not ideal for safety.

If he actually did have a broken sway bar. Good move.

I'm surprised this is a discussion. I dislike Kyle Busch with the best of them but I don't see the issue here. I'd of parked it too.

There was some debate over in the 'Rate the Race' discussion so I spun this one up to get it out of there.

I normally would take a chance to say f Kyle. But this time I honestly don’t blame him.

No issue with it. But with Kyle's recent moodiness, it's a story. I don't think he did this in a tantrum fashion.
That said, he backed out superficially.
Is there anything that's a more Kyle Busch thing for Kyle Busch to do, than Kyle Busch having a bad day, and quitting with 7 to go during a red flag?
It works. My girlfriend is a more casual can, but she watches the races with me, and gets a kick out of him. One shot of him driving in p37. "look there he is". She also cracked up at him parking it

It’s the race Dale Jr got in the car for him after he was out of the race also.

I just mean that if we look at it superficially, he backed out. That's the story. Kyle Busch quit.
We know that isn't the case, but given the recent drama around him, it's going to be very easy for casual fans to take a superficial look at this, and say "he got pissy and quit". Sorry for akward phrasing there.

I don't think Kyle did anything wrong. He couldn't gain anything with a damaged car.

Kyle Busch's antics are the main reason I still watch these races.

I should point out that she doesn't really like him. But she is very entertained and amused by him

I've said this so many times, but I think, and have thought for a while that Kyle Busch is inadvertently the funniest cup driver I have ever seen. And he doesn't intend to be, but his antics are down right comedy at times.

Coupled with his ridiculous facial expressions, yea, I can see your point.

Funny, the young people parked next to me at Charlotte last week said something similar, along the lines of him being an ass but they loved watching his antics.

My Darling Bride and I hold that there are three great tests of a relationship and if you can get through them, you stand a good chance in the long haul. One is moving household goods together. The other two are each nursing the other through an extended illness, and taking a road trip to each other's families with a minimum 3 days with each.She sure is, just signed a lease together for our first place

Good luck with the move.

Well, I was in the hospital for 3 months last summer with Guillian Barre Syndrome, coming back from paralysis amongst other stuff, and she was there.
So I'd say we made it through that! Thanks man. In fact, we've covered all 3
