NASCAR officials just made me a very happy man. They fined 21-year old Kurt Busch yesterday $50,000 along with docking him 25 points in the Cup standings and docked his owner Rick Hendrick 25 championship points for his incident this past week at the 600 in Charlotte. This ranks right up there with some of the biggest fines ever levied by NASCAR and for good reason. When I saw Kurt Busch throw part of his HANS safety device at Casey Mears on the track I was stunned and upset. Mears simply got loose then ran into the wall and came back down on Busch with no ill will. Kurt Busch is young and has lots to learn and if he doesn’t soon will someone please just bend him over their knee and give him a much needed spanking!!!
