Answer 3

Jealousy...

I am so sick of everyone saying Kyle bumps/wrecks a lot of people when he doesn't. So here is a chart of what has Kyle or into or hit so far this year.

Cup:

Daytona - None

Califorina - None

Vegas - None

Atlanta - Jarrett was slowing him done for the last 5 laps. He asked his spotter to talk to a car multiple laps down and they didn't want to move. Even during the race he broadcast or video you here Kyle say Jeff, his spotters name and the reply was I'm working on it. Jarrett decided to stay therer and Kyle bumped him to get him out of his line.

Bristol - Power steering broke and he spun himself

Martinsvile - None, Kurt actually spun him. Which seemed to break a gear.

Texas - None

Phoenix - None

Dega - Plenty will say that he ran into Jamie doing a dumb move but they don't see the shot Ragan gave him a shot/bump draft that sent him up there and Juan hit the #26 to make him run into Kyle.

Richmond - Well we all have different views on what happen there now don't we.

Darlington - Ran into Biffle accidentally knowing he was wrong he gave the spot back and passed him cleanly a couple laps later.

All Star Race - None

600 - None but Gordon was upset that Kyle gave him finger when Kyle felt Jeff was holding him up.

Dover - None

Pocono - He ran into the #26 and contributing factors was a broken mirror and he not waiting for the spotter. Also he spun because the car was so loose.

Sonoma - None

Loudon - He didn't hit anyone except rub up on Montoya's door which is how a lot of others show their displeasure and Juan spun him intentionally.

Nationwide:

Daytona - Well some had a problem with him blocking his position on the last lap (Truex). But isn't that what you have to do in plate racing. But other then that none.

California - None

Vegas - Had a flat tire and wreck himself but no incidents

Atlanta - broken shock mount broke a tire but no incidents

Bristol - got into a wreck when Truex spun out. He was unlucky enough to be in the way when Truex came back up the track after another car hit him.

Nashville - Spun himself out. He was in the way of Wimmer after he came out of the pits but once he relized he couldn't get his laps back he go out of the way.

Texas - None

Phoenix - None

Mexico - None

Dega - Got caught up in the big one but that was Kevin Lepage's fault.

Richmond - Steven Wallace hit him with a lap to go and moved out of the way before Kyle hit him back. So not sure if you are going to say he hit Steven or not.

Darlington - Spun when he and the #88 made contact. That wreck is very hard to place fault on in my opinion but others may see it differently. One just came up and the other came down.

Charlatte - None

Dover - Leffler got into the back of him spinning him out.

Nashville - He was semi involve in the wreck where they went 4 wide and Logano hit the wall. I don't count that as him running into any one their where just to much cars fighting for one spot.

Kentucky - Spun himself.

Loudon - None

Trucks:

Daytona - He and Skinner go together causing the big one. I attribute a lot of that wreck to plate racing, but many won't.

California - None

Atlanta - He got into Bruan while Bruan had a flat tire because he was racing on the apron.

Martinsville - He got into a car that was holding up everyone all day. He ran bumped the #11 to pass him and the car owner saw that coming. Thats how you pass at Martinsville. Skinner ran out of fuel in front of him and he ran up into him because Skinner just stopped in the middle of the track. And the Benson deal where Kyle was very wrong.

Charolette - Hornaday got loose and ran into him.

Dover - None, had to go to the garage and change transmissions

Texas -None

Michigan - The Hornaday incident, where if you look at the incident from Ron's in car camara you will see Hornaday come down when Kyle came up that wreck being both their faults.

So that's 4 incidents in cup where he hit someone, I think only 1 incident in the nationwide series where he hit someone else instead of getting himself into trouble and I'll give you 5 in trucks. So in 41 races he has hit someone 10 times. Almost all his incidents where deals where it only involved him and one other car. Keep in mind he has competed in more races than anyone else. He has been in a lot of incidents where he has hurt himself and where others have hurt him as well. He doesn't get in that many incidents as people think . I always felt that his aggressive nature hurts himself more than anyone else. You probably have a different chart then I do so if I missed anything you can reply.

Deny Kyles talent all you want folks, its just going to make you hate him worse each time he wins and your driver doesn't!

Answer 4

ummm.... stupid thumbs...

Answer 5

Because, like you said, the other drivers didn't win.

I think Kyle drove a heck of a race.

To the winner goes the spoils.

Answer 6

You answered your question. Your exactly right!!

Answer 7

Here is a cool article I was reading the other day:

Busch gave an obscene gesture with his middle finger as he rolled off pit road at Darlington Raceway two weeks ago. It was aimed at Pigeon and other members of his former crew standing by Earnhardt's No. 88 car.

Pigeon, who spent time on the lake with Busch's new crew the week after Richmond, didn't take it seriously.

"He had a big grin on his face," he said. "That was just Kyle being Kyle. He is good friends with everybody on the team. He just liked getting a rise out of them. It was strictly in fun."

Busch is the same way with Addington. As abusive as he might sometimes sound over his in-car radio because of an adjustment that didn't work or poor handling in general, there's nobody he respects more.

"He just doesn't want me to go out there and say, 'Eh. The car feels OK and we're 30th on the sheet,'" Busch said. "Even when I'm first on the sheet, I'm always complaining about something."

Busch said he needed an influence like Addington to help him mature as a driver.

"Steve is laid-back, easygoing," he said. "The biggest thing about Steve is he's experienced. He's aged in this sport to where he knows what to do, when to do it, how to do it. It makes a difference having a guy like that on my side."

Addington said Busch is no different than his 21-year-old son.

"There are times I'd like to choke him," he said. "It's nothing major that he's done. It's just getting him back in line. ... Maybe he's made a couple of bad moves in the Nationwide or Truck series, but I haven't seen him do anything I wouldn't do or nothing I'm not proud of."

That includes the Earnhardt incident.

"Either one of those guys could have prevented that," Addington said. "It was just hard racing with a few laps to go. The thing that I like about Kyle is he stands behind us and we stand behind him."

Pigeon understands.

"He's a wheel man," he said of Busch. "Every crew chief wants somebody that's going to drive the wheels off the car. He doesn't go out there and half-*** it. If you make a change, he's going to tell you exactly what that change did and he's going to tell you if he likes it or doesn't.

"Some guys go out there and go, 'Yes, it's this and that.' For him it's, 'F--- no, I don't like it.' That's why everybody likes him. He gets 100 percent out of the car every time."

Say cheese

Fender was prepping the pit box before the race at Darlington when a fan asked for an autograph and to pose for a picture.

A fan decked in full Earnhardt gear.

"There were more Earnhardt fans that came by and got pictures made at our pit box than anybody," Fender said. "It was kind of weird."

Rear tire changer Jake Seminara said there were more fans cheering for the team before that race than ever. He believes it's because they are starting to appreciate just how good Busch is.

"Realizing he's a wheel man," Seminara said.

If there were a day when Busch could have turned on his crew, that Saturday night at Darlington was it. Eight lug nuts fell off during five different pit stops because the wheels weren't cleaned good enough or the glue wasn't good.

Not once did Busch lose his cool. He just made up time where he could and won the race.

"I heard horror stories about Kyle, about how when something doesn't go right," Fender said. "The driver never said a bad thing."

Seminara said the public perception of Busch is unfair. He blames much of it on Busch's older brother, Kurt, who was considered somewhat of a villain early in his career.

"When Kurt came through and won a championship [in 2004], Kurt caught a bad rap for a couple of incidents," said Seminara, who got to know Kurt while working for Greg Biffle at Roush Fenway Racing. "It just fell into Kyle's lap.

"If Kurt Busch never existed it might be different for Kyle. They're both awesome drivers and people are starting to change. They're booing Kurt a lot less now."

Kyle Busch doesn't relish his role as villain, although at times he encourages it by playing off the fans who boo him.

His crew members don't seem to mind.

"The fans only get to go to a couple of races a year," Barber said. "This is everything to them, so they put their passion into it. I like to see it, whether it's for us or against us.

"It makes you wonder how it felt with Dale Earnhardt in his heyday, moving people out of the way. You either loved him or hated him, but no matter what, a lot of people respected him."

Answer 8

All the great dominant drivers have gone though the same thing Kyle is going through.  For some reason NASCAR, has always had a "villain" driver.  Petty went though it, Allison, Earnhardt Sr, Walltirp, Gordon, etc.  Heck, go to your local short track and there  will be a villain there too.

Answer 9

They know he is hear to stay and will continue to win races. That, and their drivers aren't as good so they have nothing to cheer for, so why not bash someone who IS good.

Answer 10

It's mainly Hater Nation, Rowdy has six times as many Cup wins as Junior and Hater Nation can't stamd it. They are in serious danger of overdosing on their Haterade. Somebody please give these haters a chill pill.

Answer 11

like lcayote and Tbone said

Answer 12

Because they can't handle anything different than what they want. I congratulate Busch, he won, let's move on.

Answer 13

I agree with Icayote.

Answer 14

he has a big mouth.  he will blame someone for recless driving and then go out and drive into the door of someone else the next day.  he has no class and i think drivers are affraid he will whipe them out if they get close

Answer 15

Because hes an ***. look at last night a daytona he slowed the start and caused Jeff Gordon to finish 30th god DAMIT

Answer 16

I also agree with Icayote. Kye is a fantastic driver, loads of talent but its they way he comes across, the things he says. His own brother has had enough of him. Thats why I think people dislike him so much, myslef included.

Answer 17

Because he keeps winning (at Toyota) and other fans are jealous. Plus, he might of spun out Junior at Richmond, so Junior Nation hates him. That's a lot of haters.

Answer 18

"some " nascar fans being 99.9% junior fans that are being the asses towards Kyle, cuz they just cant seem to move on from Richmond!! GET OVER IT ALREADY!!!

Go Kasey Go!!

# 9 all the way baaaby!!
