BTTT - Let’s Go Race’n
Did Tony Stewart Land One To The Face Of Kurt Busch?
Back to 2-wide racin', 12 rows deep.
The gal spins again... Messed up the infield paint this time...
The Electrifying Lady goes to the grass again, swap’n ends a couple of times, but gets a lucky pass (#2).
Dale Earnhardt, Jr talks about his upcoming show, ‘Shifting Gears’
Pretty Cool.
There is a gal racing in the Daytona ARCO race right now. ...made a nice save earlier.
NASCAR.com is running the AP story that Tony punched him, and stuff isn’t posted on the front page of NASCAR.com unless management signs off on it, so there could be some truth to it.
If this is just the beginning, well, it could be a wild week at Daytona International Speedway.
It seems there could have been some street justice applied following the on-track skirmish between Tony Stewart and Kurt Busch during Friday’s Bud Shootout practice schedule.
In the incident on track Stewart hit Busch, putting him in the wall. Busch then sped through the field and pulled alongside Stewart on the track and hit right side of his car three times before both pulled into the garage.
Both drivers were summoned to the NASCAR trailer after the incident.
What happened during or after that meeting is the big question right now in the media center.
Speed reported that Stewart threw a punch at Busch inside the NASCAR trailer Friday. There’s also rumors spreading that there may have been an additional extracurricular physical exchange later in the evening, away from the garage.
Neither driver mentioned any punches being thrown, or for that matter landed, in separate interviews this morning on Speed.
“We’re going to move forward,” Busch told Speed. “We know we need to help each other out in the future so that doesn’t happen again.”
Big un!!!!!!!!!!!
Did I ever, what a great show! I have about 200 screencaps. :D
• Jason Dalrymple works in the fabrication shop at Hendrick Motorsports and also is catch can man on Dale Earnhardt Jr.’s crew after having that job on Kyle Busch’s team last year. His mom, Harriet, insists that Jason continue going on the road despite the fact his father, Steve, is battling cancer. “His dad looks for him on TV every weekend,” Harriet said.
Steve suffered a broken hip on Jan. 14 and his doctors discovered he had bone cancer on top of several other cancers he’s been fighting for two years. “When the news spread at HMS, we began to get visits from crew members, members of the fab shop and so on,” Harriet said. “These special people came and built a ramp, bought an electric wheelchair, and stopped by for moral support. Rick (Hendrick) has called almost every day to check on my husband. When he says his organization is a family, he means it, and it’s true.”

Holy Schmoly-—stepped outside for a Marbora, and its the big one.
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. - Seven drivers will go to the rear of the field prior to the start of tonight’s Budweiser Shootout, including polesitter Kurt Busch.
Hendrick Motorsports’ Jimmie Johnson and Jeff Gordon and Penske Racing’s Ryan Newman and Busch and Wood Brothers Racing’s Bill Elliott will go to the rear for changing to backup cars for the race after damaging their primary cars in crashes Friday at Daytona International Speedway. Michael Waltrip Racing’s Dale Jarrett will drop to the rear for making an engine change prior to the race and Hendrick’s Casey Mears will move to the rear after failing to be present for the qualifying draw....
I guess AJ can put on them dumb glasses again. He’s through.
Red Bull needed wings. LOL!
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. - A meeting in the NASCAR hauler Friday night after an on-track incident between driver Tony Stewart and Kurt Busch ended abruptly when Stewart allegedly struck Busch in the presence of NASCAR officials and left the hauler, four sources with knowledge of the incident told The Charlotte Observer and ThatsRacin.com.
The physical altercation was the reason NASCAR vice president Jim Hunter told a gathering of media outside the hauler Saturday evening that another conversation with the two drivers would be held Saturday morning, the sources said.
Stewart was seen exiting the rear side entrance of the NASCAR hauler not long after both drivers had arrived. Busch remained in the hauler and eventually left, once a golf cart was summoned for him, sources said.
When asked Saturday whether NASCAR officials Robin Pemberton, John Darby and Hunter witnessed Stewart strike Busch in their presence in the NASCAR hauler Friday evening, NASCAR spokesman Ramsey Poston replied, “What transpires in the NASCAR hauler, remains in the hauler.”
Asked if that included acts of violence, Poston replied, “It includes anything.”
A check of local police records showed no charges had been filed against Stewart
Smoke would kick Busch’s ass and Newman would take either one of them.
Did Stewart throw a punch in NASCAR hauler?
And you thought things were wild Friday night? When the garage opened at 8 a.m. Saturday, it was already abuzz about a possible confrontation between Tony Stewart and Kurt Busch in the NASCAR hauler on Friday night after they were in there to discuss their crash in practice that night.
Well if Kurt has a black eye or a fat lip we’ll know. :D
