Really?

You think Kyle's sponsors are excited that he likely won't be driving their car that they paid $35 million to sponsor tomorrow in the biggest race of the season? You think Bass Pro Shops was happy that Stewart has basically thrown away the past 2.5 seasons of racing because he couldn't stay out of the sprint cars?

Let's be real. It's ridiculous. There is no reason for the "professionals" or the best of the best to be racing in the minor leagues. Period. Especially if you are Sprint Cup Series regular above the age of 25.
 
It's pretty shocking that ALL of that inside wall was solid concrete. I assumed that this track had gone overkill on safer barriers after the hard backstretch hits in recent years. ****** cheapskates.. I'm with FL. How can they justify "daytona rising" while their track is still trying to kill people?
 
"The tracks, for the most part, don't listen to really anything unless it's profitable for their shareholders," Harvick said Friday at Phoenix International Raceway. "So when you see somebody spending $400 million dollars on their track and they don't have soft walls around the inside, maybe they could spend $403 million to go ahead and finish the inside of the superspeedway there at Daytona."

Nasty hit there. As with others, seething hate for KyBu - but don't want to see injury.

That said, it was his fault but he will baked everyone else.

He already took a shot at them earlier when he said NASCAR doesn't want you touching this cars at any time. (Bumping)
