Does this guy ever learn?

hmmmm interesting…and people don’t like Kurt Bush for what reason?

Does this guy ever learn?: “

Not to beat a dead horse or anything (I know how much everyone hates that) BUT has this been discussed?
Because I thought what went on in the Nascar hauler stayed in the Nascar hauler.
I would just be interested in everyones 2 cents.

This was in Nascar Scene this week.

Punch Line
It’s been several weeks since Kurt Busch and Tony Stewart tangled at Daytona but Busch is still poking fun at Stewart.

After an on-track incident at Daytona, the two had a confrontation in the NASCAR hauler during which Stewart took a swing at Busch.

During his radio show in his hometown of Las Vegas, Busch confirmed that Stewart took a swing but says he didnt connect. He also confirmed that the scuffle ensued when Busch made fun of Stewart.

‘He wanted to throw a punch, but I bobbed and weaved like a middle welter-weight,’ Busch told the radio station. ‘We went toe to toe, I think, because I told him he has a large waistline. No punches were landed. His hair is weird, man. I don’t know what he’s going for.’

Toyota’s White: It Was Intentional

If you don’t subscribe to “The Motorsports Soapbx” blog I suggest you do. I enjoy listening to Dave on the drive home from work, even though my drive is very short, and of course when he is calling races!

Anyway I wanted to pass this post along

Toyota’s White: It Was Intentional: “The love affair between Jack Roush and Toyota continues.

The Roush-Fenway Racing co-owner has never been a fan of Toyota, once paying an employee who drove a Toyota passenger car in Yen. He criticized the Japanese automaker’s inclusion in the sport, saying they would sway the competitive balance by spending the competition under the table.

Now, the General Manager of Toyota Racing Development has returned fire, saying Carl Edwards’ Roush-Fenway team intentionally allowed an oil reservoir cover to come loose during Sunday’s race at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, in an attempt to increase downforce and gain speed. Lee White said Toyota wind tunnel testing indicates that removing the oil tank cover produces approximately 170 extra pounds of downforce, giving the car a significant aerodynamic advantage. In addition, White said videotape obtained during Sunday’s race shows a crewman pulling on Edwards’ right-rear fender to create a three-inch gap between the fender and filler panel; a gap White claims would produce an additional 70 pounds of downforce.

Roush-Fenway Racing President Geoff Smith insists that the oil tank cover came loose accidentally due to a bolt backing off during the race, and that it did not produce any performance advantage.”
