It's not over for Kyle Busch
The sponsor of the 18 Nationwide car, Z-line Designs, has said they don't want Kyle in the car at Homestead. They would like Denny Hamlin to replace him. Also article stated it is not a sure thing that Kyle will race the last two Cup races. Talk of putting Aric Almirola in the 18 for the final two races until Mars can decide what they want to do about Busch. Joe Gibbs racing hasn't made an announcement of their intentions either. Stay tuned......

Wow!!! Sponsors run Nascar if they don't want him he might be done
I think Joe Gibbs can control him and needs to step in and do something
I wonder why Interstate Batterys sponsored Joey Logano a couple of weeks ago and not the Kyle

I respect Joe Gibbs, but I don't think he can control him either. Kyle might have pushed his luck a little far this time, we'll see.

Kyle should be out for the season. He is lucky that he didn't hurt Hornaday. If Gibbs loses a sponser over this, I'll bet that Kyle will be down the road.

Sporting News is reporting that Kyle will be able to drive but without the M&M sponsorship.
Appears M&Ms did melt in his hands.

If Joe Gibbs can't control him, I'm not so sure anyone can. Joe staightened Tony Stewart out, but Kyle is alot worse than Tony ever was in my opionion.

Maybe it's my inability to pay attention for more than a few seconds at a time but I just don't understand the desire to sit and watch cars drive around in circles for hours. Give me a 4 second drag race at 320 miles an hour with 8 thousand horsepower any day. As an ex drag racer I've always believed if you can turn you aren't going fast enough.

It's because you only have an attention span of 4 seconds.

I think poor Kyle has written his own ending to the story. Sad, but you live and learn everyday.

Anybody can drive in a straight line. It is obvious that you don't understand the sport of NASCAR. in the time it took to read this you race was over.
BORING

Kyle is driving the cup car today with interstate batteries on the fenders.
Mars, M&M, Gibbs, and Kyle will be together again next year. I've got 2012 penciled in as the year Kyle takes home the cup, tho if Smoke steals it from Carl today, that prediction may change.
I like drag racing as well, but why in the world would anyone feel the need to interupt this thread on nascar to inject thier own opinion whiile cutting down ours? Fail to see the point....

Counterpoint: as someone who dabbled in stock car racing as a youth I can't for the life of me figure out those who enjoy watching a car go in a straight line (usually) for only 1/4 mile - where's the skill in that?
