Why are people blaming the long weekend for K. Busch's s***w up Sunday in Pocono?

Question

Hasn't he proven many times over he can tear up equipment under normal circumstances?!

Answer 1

I don't get where all these "Kyle just wrecks good equipment"  claims come from.

Kyle averages 4.2 DNFs / year.  Jr averages 4.5 DNF throughout his career, Jeff Gordon averages 4.8, and Tony Stewart averages 3.5.  He doesn't wreck or total cars anymore than any other driver.

Answer 2

Who is blaming the long weekend? I've been on here every day, I haven't seen anyone blame it on that!

He made a mistake, he's not the only driver to ever make a mistake.

And as far as the tearing up of equipment, what Tbone said!

Silver above me, does that mean you think Rowdy's gonna be a 4 time nascar champion? SWEET!

Answer 3

yep, let's not forget that was a back up car he tore up sunday. he wrecked his primary car in practice saturday.

Answer 4

He didnt just s***w up in Pocono he s***w up at Texas but got a good finish ( 2nd ) and at Nashville bad finish ( 22nd ) he s***w up everywhere!!!!!!!!.....!!!!!!! I hateeeeeee both of the Busch bros. especially Kyle!.

Answer 5

Because he traveled over 4,000 miles at three different tracks in three different states  within 72 hours. I don't care how young and strong you are, probably ate junk food, popped vitamin pills, etc. If I were the owner of his NASCAR car, I'd tell him no more.

He as anyone would begin to suffer his reflexes.

Answer 6

This is getting obsurd. Why would anyone blame poor shrub for anything. He is an idiot, Get it? got it? Good!!!

Get over it and move on

Answer 7

It was driver error

Answer 8

Busch is a punk, he is the new Jeff Gordon the one we love to hate and hate I do!!!! He is dangerous and too pig headed to listen. h**l if my car breaks down I blame Busch!

Answer 9

He must not be tearing up to much or he wouldn't be leading the points. The only thing that's been proven here is your neverending lack of intelligence. Enjoy this race all you can, because next week is a whole new story. (Way to pounce on him after he wrecks for the first time this season). I wish Dale Junior would win so you could cheer for something instead of bashing other drivers.

Answer 10

I say Kyle screwed up because he jumped the gun and tried to block McMurray too early. He should've let McMurray go by and then pass him on the next lap. I mean it was a 500 mile race, he would've had plenty of time to pass.

Answer 11

Like pitsteel *Noted....

Answer 12

No you're thinking about JJ Yeley dude.  Contrary to popular belief Kyle doesn't tear up much equipment.   In fact he had a higher percentage of laps completed then Jeff Gordon last year alone.  And correct me if I'm wrong but Gordon was pretty amazing last year..  Thats just an excuse for [Edit: SOME] HMS fans to praise the move from Kyle to Jr although none of its true.  You can learn these facts by simply researching.

Answer 13

I'll just say that he wrecked because hit spotter didnt react in time to let him know he wasnt clear of mcmurray.

I'd hate to be a spotter, so much pressure.
