No one seemed to mind when Sr pulled those shenanigans.

That's because Sr. was a good person off the race track and everybody liked him.

I may be very new to driving race cars but from what I have learned if you're not clear of someone, you do not try and come up into their line, and if you do and you are put into the wall it certainly is not their fault for not lifting. The way I see it Brad did nothing wrong, Kyle was not clear and should not have come up the race track. Brad was simply running his line and Kyle went high into him and subsequently was put into the wall for his own action. With only 20 miles left to go it is not Brad's responsibility to lift and let Kyle in. I have lots of respect for Kyle as a race car driver but I think he was clearly at fault with that incident.

Brad was RACING, Kyle was being IMPATIENT (as usual) and put himslef into the wall.

I am so sick of Nascar drivers crying about how "some drivers race too hard." Well guess what? Thats the freaking sport! Brad K. is the only one that seems to understand that right now in my opinion.

I will choose a local short track whenever they put a NASCAR race on TV Saturday night, and I will watch the Sunday races and thats it. Local short track racing will forever has Nasacar smoked IMO.

Go Brad K! :clap:

Sooner or later (probably sooner) he (Brad) will indeed wake up and see what hes doing orrr he might not wake up at all if he continues driving the way he does. I mean dam cmon when Jr. tells you to quit being a tool it might be time to listen.........

One reason I rarely if ever watch NASCAR anymore, it just seems the drivers are getting dumber and less respectful of each other.

Bubba that's exactly what I thought. I would of done the same thing in Kyle's position. I have on track, and I have on NR2003. 2nd I heard from Kyle this week and he got told he was clear the whole time. His spotter put Kyle in the wall, and Brad didn't crack it at all.

More like because Sr. made some attempt to be sneaky about it, and he didn't go whining to the media when he got it back. He knew what goes around comes around.

Even though I don't like Kyle, I have to agree. Was watching Race Hub yesterday, and Kyle was on and said his spotter said clear. After watching the replay I would of said clear as well, and if I were Kyle, I would of moved up. I'm not saying that the payback was necessary, but I say it was a racing incedent.
