An argument could be made that Kyle Busch has made a living not only by driving race cars but also through speaking his mind. If it hasn't helped him earn a paycheck it's definitely helped him gain fans as the driver of the No. 18 M&M's Toytoa Camry has just struck a cord with some for being true to himself and different than most drivers.
Last weekend at the Texas Motor Speedway Busch did what he does best: make everyone talk. After spinning on lap 159 and losing a lap after deemed speeding on pit road, Busch went on a profanity laced tirade over the radio towards NASCAR. Using the 'F' bomb a few times and a one finger salute, Busch would be penalized two more laps for unsportsmanlike conduct and his chance at finishing in the top 10 was gone.
Two days later Busch was further penalized by NASCAR: probation until December 31st and $25,000 fine. He apologized to everyone involved and when speaking on Friday at the Phoenix International Raceway, expressed that his actions were childish and inappropriate.
But ...
What if Kyle Busch did not explode last weekend in Texas during the Sprint Cup Series race, where would he have finished?
@lydiascats 6th or 7th
@cruetten not a fan of his, but he was charging to the front! I think he would've finished top five or so...
@StrokerAce90 Lugs Harvey & I both agree that Kyle would never have made it past Denny without wrecking him. Denny was saved by the bird.
@racetime2010 he would have had a top ten finish, but not the win
@RedChevy14 Between 6th and 15th. He'da been the lap down but could've made it up.
@Nascarnoll Doesn't matter he isn't going to win the championship
@kbm18 He would of finished in the top 3 if not of WON it• Ul c then what I thought of it then• #TeamKyle Busch
It doesn't matter. He can't control himself. He is his own worst enemy.
