What ever happened to hard racing?

Question

Do you think Kyle is racing hard

or just wrecking people on purpose?

Answer 1

I think he's going all-out, balls-to-the-wall every lap.  That's what's getting him into trouble. He just pushes harder, and harder, and you know what happens next, you go over the line and wreck.  Kyle will learn one of these days that sometimes it pays to back off, just a little....I ought to know...been there...done that!!!

Answer 2

Do you really need to ask me this question? Of course he wrecks people on purpose. And it's not just Jr. If someone tries to race him, he just says "you know what, I'm sick of you." One thing that is good about kyle is that he seems to be the only driver who doesn't just think "oh, you've got a better car than me, pass me I'll get you later." Well, maybe Jr. doesn't do that. Still, I hate Kyle.

Answer 3

Kyle is old school He runs hard all the time  He reminds me of Dale Sr

Answer 4

I think with the cot's durability its made drivers be more aggressive and I like it!

Answer 5

The hard racing that took place 10 years ago is history because of fan involvment.

We get overly zealous and say things when hard racing ends up with our favorite driver wrecking or spinning or just loosing by being passed at the last minute.

But I can not see where any on purpose wrecks have happened(short of Waltrip/Mears).

Answer 6

Is that the only choices I get, or can I bring up the NHRA

Answer 7

He races hard. Sometimes too hard. Of all the stuff he's been mixed up in, the only time I think he wrecked somebody on purpose was his brother at last year's all-star race.

I think it's a reach in logic to say Busch wrecked Jr.intentionally. Truthfully, both of them are to "blame."

Junior Nation won't accept, but denial is ain't a river in Egypt.

Answer 8

If he was going around like a crazed maniac wrecking people on purpose, nascar would've sat his butt out by now..

He knows that by taking people out, you also run the risk of taking yourself out, he wants to win, intentionally running that risk isn't conducive to winning

Answer 9

His actions in all three racing series count.  He runs hard, and if that means he wrecks you, that seems to be fine with him. Yeah, he runs all out, checker or wreckers, and he doesn't care if that means he takes somebody out with him.  I like to watch him race when he's doing it hard and clean. He's a great talent, but I hope he soon learns how to be intelligently aggressive and stops giving those post-wreck interviews that do him no favors whatsoever.

That being said, he doesn't remind me of Sr.  Sr. came from a time when winning a race meant you got to feed your family and race the next weekend.  That's what made him into a hard racer.  Modern-day champions like Jeff Gordon, Jimmie Johnson, Matt Kenseth, and Tony Stewart all run hard but smart but without the I'll wreck you to win attitude.  Tony pulls c**p on the track, but not at the same level as Kyle.  Doesn't mean they don't s***w up now and again, but it's not a regular thing with them.

Answer 10

I'm a little confused. Who is he wrecking now? Didn't touch anyone at Darlington in the Cup race besides Greg Biffle and they settled that on the racetrack. Didn't wreck anyone at Richmond besides the contact with Dale. Didn't wreck anyone at Talladega. Or is my memory shot? Is there something I'm not seeing? Yes, he drives hard. Yes he gets a touch aggressive at times. No, he is not the reckless yahoo many people seem to think he is. I can't speak for the truck series or the Nationwide races. I haven't seen many of them this year, but he's leading the truck points and has won a bunch of Nationwide races, so he must be doing something right.

Answer 11

kyle is doing both he knew when he drove it in that deep at richmond he would wash up on  Jr. and nascar just turnes a blind eye every time he does that

Answer 12

mostly left with dale sr

Answer 13

Aside from the racing deal with JR he hasn't wrecked a single car in the Cup series.  People confuse me.    Of course fans dreamed up the same nonsense with Stewart and Gordon because they knew they were good and kicked the c**p out of their favorite drivers.  

Thank you Jay.

Answer 14

Kyle recklessly ran into Biffle in the last race.  He didn't try to pass, he just hit him. Biffle didn't block him.  He is RECKLESS, just because Biffle saved it does not mean it did not happen. He isn't like Dale Sr, he punted people for the win. Kyle just mows over them with 200 laps to go.

He has been lucky, he hasn't wrecked many but if you don't think Biffle will dump him the next chance you are fools. Same with Jr. The first thing Jr said was no amount of talking will change the outcome. He didn't put this behind him, he filed it away.

In the near future the cars will be more equal and passing for Kyle will be a challenge, wait and see. Everything can be blamed on Jr Nation in the meantime. Kyle is just like you all, he doesn't have a clue as to what is brewing.
