Did Carl rough up Kyle or was it fairly clean?

Question

I'm listening to the radio only. (no TV)

Answer 1

with 20 something laps to go and you finaly have a chance to go for the win and you do so by bumping a little, that was clean. Kyle lost no track position, he was able to even slip right behind Carl and bump him back so no that was fair

Answer 2

Clean. And the exact same type of bump and run Kyle has used on others (including Carl) before.  

Answer 3

it was clean. the crybaby kyle fans would make you think otherwise...!!!

Answer 4

just your typical Bristol (pre the repave anyway) pass in my book....no idea why Kyle took such offence to it *shrugs*

Answer 5

It's Bristol...It was clean as the driven snow.

Shrub got his bump back after the pass

Answer 6

It was clean.

Answer 7

it twas clean, and Kyle deserved it...

"It's one of those deals where I couldn't get by him, I couldn't get by him, and I just had to ask myself, 'Would he do that to me?' Edwards said after doing his trademark backflip off the car in Victory Lane. "And he has before, so that's the way it goes.''

"Let's make it real clear -- I'm not apologizing for it," Edwards said, citing several instances where he felt like Busch took him out of races to gain positions. "We're even." ... "They keep talking about rivalries,'' Edwards added. "We might have one now.''

Answer 8

For Bristol....that's as clean as it gets....Carl did what he had to do to win.

Answer 9

I am not sure about clean. It is the acceptable Bristol bump and run.

Kyle has done harder bumps. he has no reason to complain. The bump and run is the reason the car that leads the most laps usually does not win.

Answer 10

it was clean he barely hit him " bump and run"

Answer 11

One of the cleanest passes at Bristol I've ever seen.  

Answer 12

it was a tap... kyle didnt even get sideways... it was fairly clean

Answer 13

It was clean.....if it was rough he would of put him into the wall or spun him out!!!!

GO HARVICK & RCR!!!!

Answer 14

He hit Kyle and Kyle got a little loose and Carl passed him, according to my information he nudged Kyle's left fender and that decreased his acceleration, you need a lot of that at Bristol and Kyle struggled to contend with Denny and Harvick.

Answer 15

it was fairly clean, he made him loose a bit but nothing that would wreck him or anything.  

Answer 16

Nope classic bump and run.

Answer 17

It was clean. It was racing. Carl did exactly what Shrub would have done if it would have been the other way around.

Answer 18

the "bump and run" was done with some THIRTY laps to go. if kyle is as bad as his-self thinks he is, than he had PLENTY of time to get the lead back and/or retaliate. i'm an old school EARNHARDT FAN and i know the bump and run. it was usually done with 2 or 3 laps to go, not much time to get back at 'em. if kyle was mad at the situation, it was with himself.

Answer 19

It was a clean bump and run.

Answer 20

For Bristol, it was squeeky clean.  

Answer 21

Man this this was Bristol at its best, man this was awesome Congrats Cousin Carl, any body that can stand up and whoop this dang little scrub, go get'um Carl, I'm not the biggest Ford Fan. I looking forward to Roush-Fenway whopping Toyota's A**. It was just racing and Bristol does anybody remember Labonte and Earnhardt Sr..Yep it just Bristol one of the last few tracks where these guys show some real driving personality.

Go Dale Jr & Hms (and Dale Jr please read the rule book before the next race especially the starts)

Answer 22

It was racin"

Shrub needs to shut his pie hole !!!

Answer 23

it wasnt a bump and run, before they got to the turn carl hit the back of kyle busch which made him enter the turn faster and slide up the race track more, and kyle had to break harder to avoid running higher which allowed edwards to get past him in one solid swoop.

Answer 24

What Carl did was a sweet maneuver. Carl did it without wrecking our points leader, and he did it for a victory.
