I missed most of the race, though a small group of us could watch the end in the breakroom. I heard about, and read a tiny bit about, a crash and some words between Tony Stewart and Kurt Busch. Do any of you have details? Is there maybe some video online?

nascar has the video at nascar.com...they were going back and forth for several laps, Kurt tried to get around Tony and was not clear, when he cut over, he got tony...then as Kurt started to go backward(banking, selfcleaning track) tony hit him, there was no time to avoid it...then flag goes yellow, pits occur and the next thing you saw was kurt hitting tony's car, senting the tire guy over tonys car to avoid being hurt...kurt sat the race out and penalties are yet to be determined

Busch drove underneath Stewart going through Turns 3 and 4 but coming off Turn 4, the pair made contact. Stewart's left-front fender caught Busch's right-rea corner as Busch tried to pull up in front of Steward, which turned Busch into the outside frontstretch wall and caused Stewart to slep the concrete. After the incident Stewart came to pit road before Busch and parked in his stall so they could assess the damages. Stewarts jack man, Lee, had come around the front of Stewart's car to check the corner when Busch rolled into Stewart's pit box, paralled to the No. 20 but at a slight angle, Lee jumped onto the hood of the No. 20 to avoid Busch. After this incident Busch was imediately parked by NASCAR for aggressive driving. He was also called to the NASCAR hauler for a post-race meeting. Further action would be deteremined following NASCAR's weekly post-event competition meetings.
This just is another sign of how childish some of these racers are. Don't they understand the concept of racing?! Sometimes accidents happen...no reason to retaliate and take yourself out in the process.

Kurt and Tony were racing side by side passing each other back and forth. Kurt was on the inside and must have thought he was clear or was trying to pinch Tony. He came up hit Tony and spun out. Tony gave him a little extra tap as Kurt was spinning. Tony was in the pits getting repairs when Kurt came in and discuss with Tony probably by giving each other the finger since you cant talk with helmets on and cars running. He almost hit Tonys jack man who had to jump onto the car to avoid being hit. NASCAR didnt like this and parked Kurt. Tony finished 40th and Kurt 42nd. It was late in the race and both were running in the top 10.

Busch and Stewart were going at it for a while.
Coming off turn 4, Busch tried to pass stewart on the bottom, and Stewart wouldn't give up room. So Busch is clipped into the wall, and he spins out and it looks like Stewart finished the job. On pit road, while Stewart's car is being repaired, Busch pulls up next to him, and probably exchange a few words. That gets him parked for the day by Nascar. If you want to watch the video, try Foxsports.com, Nascar.com, Sports.Yahoo.com, or maybe even Espn.com

Kurt was passing Tony and he tried to move over in front of him, but he wasn't far enough in front to move over and hit Tony's car and went into a spin. Kurt then pulled up next to Tony's car on pit road and had some words with him and NASCAR didn't approve of that move.

Busch once again was an idiot and ran Tony into the wall. Then when Tony was in his pit, Busch pulled up so close along side of Tony that one of Tony's crewmen had to jump on Tony's hood to not get hit.
IDOIOT, just like his little brother.
They should both have their racing licenses revolked forever.

Tony and Kurt got into each other on the track, and Busch tried to retaliate on pit row. He is lucky he did not seriously injure one of Tony's pit crew members. Just another stupid stunt pulled by one of the Busch brothers.
