This boy can't race clean. He punted Kyle and damn near wrecking him (i'm not a bush fan) but the wreck will always be behind Tony. I gave him a new nickname Stewie from family guy, the 2 are alot alike, conniving,treacherous, & manlipulative. I just hope Stewie does not get a ray gun.

I agree. We know why the drivers put up with it. They get in trouble when they retaliate. Last year when Tony Stupid, wrecked Clint Bowyer, intentionally, it ended up taking out Carl Edwards in the process. Carl Bumped Tony going into pit road, Carl got busted, Tony did not. Then in the Busch race the following weekend, Jr wrecked Edwards. After the race when Edwards went after NASCAR"S poster child, who can do nothing wrong, Carl got busted. Now I don't entirely agree with Carls actions, but I understand why he acted that way, But Punching out Jr, is not going to potentially kill anyone. Bumping Tiny when they are going 50 MPH, is not going to hurt anyone but Tony. Intentionally wrecking other drivers, as Tony and Jr. constantly do, at nearly 200 MPH could seriously injure or kill someone.
If Kyle Busch was really that bad, then Tony could have just waited it out and pass him cleanly, but that is simply not his style. Tony thinks that any driver should just move over and let him by, and if they don't then he will move them over. I was at the Vegas Race last year when he said that he wrecked Kyle Busch, because, he wasn't letting him pass him. What Kyle was doing, that was racing. You can't just give up spots because, some hothead thinks he deserves to be ahead of you. Makes you wonder, does Tony have a problem with Busch. And no I am not a huge Busch fan, I don't hate him, but I don't cheer for him either.

Here is a thought for you. If the #5 can't stand the heat, get out of the fast lane. It isn't an interstate, it is a race track. Stewart wasn't being aggressive, he was simply letting the youngster know the rules - lead, follow, or get out of the way. If Kyle Bush wants to drive like that, he can stay home in Vegas and try his skills on I-15.

Track bully? I guess you never saw *the real Earnhardt* race? He wasnt the Intimidator for no reason at all. *Stewie* is like Martha Stewart compared to Sr! And who really wants Kyle Busch to win anyway? I personally would rather see him hit a wall no matter who put him into it. Next time, Stewie should wait until the last lap, and make sure he tears Kyles car up!

Tony Stewart is known to drive aggressive. He is on the hunt to win his first Daytona 500, and so he is very eager to do well the week before the big race. Having a good reputation in NASCAR requires one to drive clean, respect other drivers, and most of all, not to lose one's temper. I respect drivers who try to abide by these guidelines. If Tony Stewart is a track bully, then it's all up to him to make the right moves. Other drivers should be prudent in what they say about Tony if he makes wrong moves, but they must have a good reason for discrediting him.

Seems to me that in the 60's there was a track bully named Petty,and the 70's brought Waltrip,when we entered the 80's there was a Black #3 with Earnhardt at the wheel.So comes the 90's and early 2000 and it is a Gordon now it is Stewart.
Maybe the greats are bullies,but I sure do like to watch the races.

You haven't been around racing much.Kyle only put on 2 fresh tires when he pitted,thus he was loose.Even Kyle admitted he wouldn't have been able to stay in front much longer.He's lucky it WAS Tony and not some one who WOULD have ran right over him.Now that you have the facts,take a couple of extra doses of the meds you are obviously on and F.R.O.

It all comes down to money. Stewart wouldn't get penalized because Home Depot is a huge sponsor. Jr. wouldn't get penalized because he is NASCAR's marketing butt buddy. Gordon didn't get penalized for taking out Kenseth at Chicagoland last year because NASCAR didn't want to upset woman in the stands (or the gay community) by hurting their driver. I say let them race but if you take out someone on the track you better watch your rear view mirror the next time that guy is behind you.

Go to a local track. It's called:
R
A
C
I
N
G
Tony didn't do anything any other driver wouldn't have done "if" they'd had the opportunity including Kyle. Tony is not my favorite driver but he won the race fair.

Yeah well even if he only put on 2 fresh tires, Tony still could have waited and went around him cleanly. He did move him out of the way and he didn't have to do that!!!!!!!!!!!
