From neighbor:

In response to your email regarding M&M'S BRAND NASCAR RACING TEAM.

The recent actions demonstrated by Kyle Busch are not consistent with the values of Mars, Incorporated and we are very disappointed. We do not condone this behavior and expect those who represent our company and brands to abide by the same values our company stands for. We have expressed our strong concerns directly to Joe Gibbs Racing.

Sincerely,

Consumer Care
Mars Chocolate North America

Here's a little news while we wait for Homestead.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — NASCAR has penalized Danica Patrick's crew chief for a rules violation last weekend at Phoenix.

Crew chief Tony Eury Jr. was fined $10,000 on Tuesday and placed on probation through March.

The penalty was for an improperly attached weight on Patrick's car in the Nationwide Series race on Saturday. Patrick was involved in an early accident and finished 21st.

Patrick is moving to NASCAR full time next season and will run the Nationwide schedule for JR Motorsports with Eury as her crew chief. She'll also run 10 Sprint Cup Series races for Stewart-Haas Racing.

From Kyle Bush’s in car camera you could clearly see his car was painted with DEFECTIVE w&w’s. I am sure it has slowly driven him crazy.

Yeah they expressed their concerns, but sat idly by while he bullied his way through the NW and truck races for years. And, they will be back to him in 2012. He’s a very bad example for children - doubt he will ever change. He and his brother are brats and probably never had any discipline as children.

Just my .02 cents for free -— :)
