Accord Posted May 8, 2005 Share Posted May 8, 2005 Just heard this on SportsCenter. NASCAR officials didn't think the language he was using over the radio was appropriate and took offense to it, so they issued him a 2 lap penalty in the pits and ordered him to turn his engine off and instead Busch started to rev his engine and he threw a water bottle at an official :lol :lol :lol :lol .

Ramp Posted May 8, 2005 Share Posted May 8, 2005 NASCAR officials are lame didnt they dock Jr 25pts last year for profanity? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flamarlins3 Posted May 8, 2005 Share Posted May 8, 2005 Yes they did, but not like this penalty affected Kurt in the results anyways. He was already a ton of laps down. Gay rules, but Nascar would not have penalized him if he were on the lead lap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodge Posted May 8, 2005 Share Posted May 8, 2005 The NASCAR officials sure have figured out a good way to take a lot of fun out of the sport. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jiggy Posted May 8, 2005 Share Posted May 8, 2005 I liked that Busch race when Shane Hmiel gave Dale Jarret the bird after Jarret came up to his window and started pointing at him and yelling at him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Das Texan Posted May 8, 2005 Share Posted May 8, 2005 NASCAR wants to be like the NFL so they want to eliminate fun. That and they have to appeal to their right wing conservative christian core. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dodge Posted May 8, 2005 Share Posted May 8, 2005 stuff like this makes NASCAR awesome 766518[/snapback] Exactamundo. Mike Helton doesn't realize this. Those feuds throughout the 70's and 80's, even the 90's, made the sport. Petty and Pearson, Earnhardt and Wallace, etc etc. NASCAR needs to realize that they need to step back and let these guys race, instead of having 43 guys driving around afraid to race. Enough of the stupid penalty crap. I hate Tony Stewart, but I wish everyone in the sport was like him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus don't forget about the Waltrip/Earnhardt feud of the early 80's :mischief Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
