Hi `Mike,
It's sad that a man with so much talent for racing , can't seem to control his emotions/temper.
I hope his younger brother `Kyle learns from his big brothers mistakes...They both are gifted with the ability to win races, but I don't think they are winning in their personalities

Being in the public eye, puts a spotlight on a persons human flaws...It's the price they pay....?

You've got to wonder what in the world Kurt Busch is thinking, if he is thinking at all.

1) He does not have a contract to drive either car he is driving right now. He has handshake agreements, meaning his owners could fire him at any time they want just bring someone else to the track.

2) He has no sponsor. His car has been just plain red and white for the majority of the season (save a few early season races where he had a sponsor, and a few minor sponsors here and there), his team is being run basically out of that James Finch's pocket. Can you seriously expect to get a sponsor like this???


I think he could get one though. Maybe Prozac or lithium or something. But that is providing we get this guy to a doctor and get him fixed, then they can advertise their results.

No one psychologists can help the man. He needs a whole team. He needs a whole team to sort this guy out and figure out why he doesn't realize he was up the creek with a sinking boat and no paddle when the season started and he's peddling straight for a waterfall with his hands.

He's just loosening his temper... it'll get worse when he fully loses it.

David Reutimann will drive the car this week. The team owner is planning a "Come to Jesus" meeting with Kurt Busch that will determine his future with the team.


Another itneresting stat: in 14 races, if you include qualifying and practice, Kurt Busch has crashed 14 cars this season, including the 4 he crashed in the Speedweeks at Daytona.

I just realized that. I guess my finger was a little heavy on the keyboard.

Not excusing him but you have to admit that was a pretty stupid question, he even said as much when interviewed on TV after the race.

Makes me kind of wonder if some people (reporters and racers) are trying to **** him off just to see him implode even further. Not a fan of Kurt's but he is far from the first to go bonkers on the media and the competition!

What a waste of a career. He is no doubt a very good driver. He needs anger management but it is too late for that and has probably failed the course already anyways. He is surely pissed at everyone since he has landed himself in this position and has to take it out on somebody.
CYA Kurt-bring Steve Park back......
