Kyle Busch walks away from scary flip in Talladega Busch race
Quote selected text Published April 28th, 2007 in NASCAR News
Kyle Busch walked away from a spectacular crash early in Saturday’s NASCAR Busch Series race at Talladega Superspeedway.
Busch was running second as the field drove off turn four on the 2.66-mile oval to complete lap 27 of the 117-lap Aaron’s 312.
The Nextel Cup star suddenly darted up the banking as he prepared to pass Kasey Kahne for the lead. Two-time Cup champion Tony Stewart, in third, followed and appeared to hit Busch’s car. Busch then bounced off the car driven by Casey Mears and turned across the track and into the wall.
Busch’s car was on its side as it struck the outside barrier, then skidded on its roof down the banking and onto the grass infield, where it began barrel-rolling as flames erupted from under the hood.
The No. 5 Chevrolet finally stopped on its wheels and Busch quickly scrambled from the cockpit. He walked straight to a waiting ambulance for the mandatory ride to the infield medical center.

APPEARED TO HIT BUSCH’S CAR!!!! There was no APPEAR TO. He hit him. But no, Stewart the greatest driver in Nascar. Oh no wait he is the second greatest driver next to Dale Jr. Jeez. Somebody need to go out back and shoot Stewart’s stupid ass. He CANT drive. As soon as someone hits him its the worst thing that could of ever happened in the world but when he hits everyone else, it’s a racing incident. He freakin’ sucks at driving.
*bows*…. so very well put Ben and I couldn’t agree more
I’m glad to know Kyle is OK!!!!
These cars are on the edge of out of control. You wouldn’t know that ‘cos you’ve never gone that fast. You ever drive beind a semi-truck and pull out to pass it? You ever feel that sudden gush of wind hit your car when you clear it? That is what those drivers battle against constantly. Look closely, those cars wiggle back and forth on the straights because of the air turbulance that is created by the car in front, left and right. It was a racing accident.
I guess his no skill at driving won him 2 championships in Nextel Cup.
Ya know, I did happen to catch a little of the race today and I did see the wreck that happend…. not all the surprised that Tony the tantrum was involved in it. I too am glad that Kyle is ok, was a little nervous there when I saw the flames were on the inside of his car. *bows*…. so very well put Ben and I couldn’t agree more.
Ya know whenever Tony hits someone he always gets ripped for it but let Gordon or Jr. or anyone else and its ok… They all do it it happens. Its RACING!!!!!
kyle freakin sucks. he deserved that for swerving all over the all the time. and stewart sucks at driving? im not a fan of his but hes got a hell alot more driving skill then kyle busch has
Kyle has won a championship? Don’t think so. Dweeby brother has, though.
Ahhh so is this why he was smiling at the end of the race?
Stewart was racing very agressively as he had done the entire race, it was simply a miscalculation that turned up bad for the Shrub….but as much as I dislike him I’m glad he’s alright. I think Busch has a ton of talent he just needs to realize that he’s not going to win early on and needs to calm down, come to think of it we should tell Tony that as well
Kyle got a heapin dose of karma yesterday. I’m glad he’s ok and all, I just hope it makes him gunshy today. Kyle and Tony need to settle down or someones gonna get killed. Both of them are talented beyond question.
SERG
So you maintain that Tony didn’t hit Kyle, that he just took the air of him and that caused Kyle to wreck. Have I got that right?
