Kyle Busch: I Don’t Have Any Fans

September 12th, 2008 | by RacingWin |

It seems that David Caravielo over at NASCAR.com has a different view of Kyle Busch than the one Dale Earnhardt Jr has.

“I don’t have any fans. Just wait, Dale Earnhardt Jr. will be here in a while.” ~ Kyle Busch

After all - it was Junior who said “The reaction after the spin with Kyle was pretty impressive,” after the 2 tangled at Richmond putting Busch in the wall.

However, Caravielo spent a day with Kyle Busch in New York this week as part of the NASCAR Chase media tour - and came away with an interesting side of Kyle Busch.

Caravielo had a different view of Busch than that held by most members of Junior Nation .

Still, Caravielo saw the dark side of Kyle Busch when one fan looking for an autograph almost ordered the driver to “Take care of your fans.” Kyle simply answered: “I don’t have any fans. Just wait, Dale Earnhardt Jr. will be here in a while.”

The article is worth reading even if you are a Kyle Busch fan. Catch it at NASCAR.com

    Kyle Busch ruins our NASCAR day of races we turn the sound off as John Roberts and ESPN get such a kick out of what a creep he is. Kyle about the mother on mothers day said she couldn’t help her creep wasn’t from the south like Jr. so now she wouldn’t get to talk to his mother what was from Vegas should stay in Vegas we sure wouldn’t miss him or her.

    I was at the Richmond race when it happened and, yes, the roar of the crowd was EXTREMELY impressive. Won’t go into detail. However, I do not dislike Kyle Busch and with all my heart would like to see him win the Cup………….if Dale Jr. does not. Of course, Junior will always be my #1 forever. Why? Because he is as humble as they come. That’s why 100%! I have the upmost respect for Kyle Busch. Kyle is a top driver and if I owned a team he would be the one I’d want driving for me.

    Funny, funny… Dale Jr really gets under his skin. It is Kyles fault that he was dumped by Mr H, rather than admit it, he blames Junior.

    Kyle’s natural driving qualities are just so self-centered. He thinks that being TOUGH and abusive to other drivers will get him some brownie points. He drives well in his races, at the expense of other drivers, with their dreams of winning also wrecked and abused by him.

    Nascar must love him or they would have banned him. I personally think that he is the lowest breed of a driver to enter the circuit and will be so glad when he is gone.

    When Kyle Busch is leading a race, I just turn the TV to another station, I could care less about Nascar. I really think that Kyle Busch’s attitude has been the downfall of Nascar.

    Nobody wants to look at a race, at home on your TV, or on the track, if that obnoxious Kyle is leading and expects everyone to get out of his way. He can wreck whomever he pleases and just drive on! But let one driver put a wee dent on his chariot, or pass him, and he is the biggest whiney baby I have ever seen…worse than Jeff Gordon.

    Kyle Busch needs to get out of Dodge!
    He is just an insult to other drivers…………..yuck, makes yOU wanna toss your cookies, just thinking about him.
    AND, HE LOVES The attention!

    “Shrubble” doesn’t have that may fans, he succks like a bottomfeeder when it come to personality, he deserves NO RESPECT, he’s always slamming someone by that pie hole he has for a mouth or on the track… Good Driver? Could be a lot better, he’s not the greatest thing since sliced bread…even his own brother can’t get along with him…He’s a waste of time. And a pain to watch!

    I like Kyle Busch and his brother, too. They are great drivers. Yes, I love Jr., too. But Kyle is a driving fool and should get credit for being the best out there. Stewart drives the same stuff and has 0 wins. I’d rather root for drivers than boo them all. It leads to less disapointment on Sunday’s when you have a lot of drivers that you would like to see win. If you want to boo someone, it should be that bully Carl edwards (Opie Munster), who picks on his own teamates like he did to Matt Kenseth. Love you Kyle

    Poor ol’ Kyle doesn’t have any fans??? Gee whiz, I wonder WHY? The jerk needs to look in the mirror and he’ll see why. What an arrogant jerk he is! I jumped for joy over the New Hampshire race. Wow! That was one of the best of the entire season! The little twerp got his!! He would have ended up with a worse finish if not for the guys in the big wreck being out of the race. I get so tired of hearing the race announcers build him up. They just add fuel to the fire and make him that much worse. He is not a good representative of NASCAR and, hopefully, he won’t win the championship; he does not deserve it.

    All I can say is Kyle is his own worst enemie. He was let go from Hendrick because he was wrecking cars left and right and no regard for the money it took to put those cars on the track or his fellow Nascar drivers. He was not let go to put Jr. in a car. Maybe some day he will grow up. I guess he only needs his girlfriend. However, he does have fans and to make a statement like that was disrespectful to the fans that he does have. I am Dale Jr. fan and always will be good or bad and he did not intentionally take him out in that race as he hit his brakes hard not to hit him, but Kyle still whines about it. I just hope someday that punk grows up. He does have talent but he needs to learn respect that it takes to make a Nascar champion. Until then I hope he does not win the championship.

    Kyle is absolutely right, maybe he has one, hisself and his family. WHAT A REMARK TO BE MADE, YES, WE LOVE JR AND HE ALWAYS HAS A LITTLE TIME FOR US,HIS FANS. Kyle needs to grow up and quit wineing boohoo–boooohoooo.If the truth was really known, Richard Petty showed them, take care of your fans. IF I HAD OF BEEN THAT FAN I WOULD HAVE TORN THE PAPER OR WHATEVER HE WROTE ON AND THREW IT IN THE TRASH. grammy 66

    I cant imagine why I’m going to defend the unpopular driver but I do remember until about 3 seasons ago some guy named Jeff was famous for that same style of driving and had wrecked my driver and yours and yours and yours too!!!….. Just stating the facts.

    I don’t like to see Kyle win, yet he is a good racer and you cant take that away from him. As long as his car or truck are running, he is competitive and that’s what good racing is all about,There is to much pressure put on Jr.and cant handle it.Nascar sprint has 20 to 25 real good drivers, luck is not always on their side.Mark Martin being one and Carl is having a good year with some good driving. Lets not forget # 48.

    I agree with you Maureen…. Jr. is of course a “Fan Favorite” and I love him too. But everyone has to agree that Kyle is either a “GREAT driver” or he has been given a “Great Car?” My feeling is that forgiven his few mis-haps in a few races where he took some upper edges against some other drives to get where he is (and got away with it?) Ya gotta admit he is a good driver. HUH?

    Dear Sylvia N.
    I’m sorry, did you say that if you saw Kyle Bush lead too many laps you changed your channel? JEEEZE you must NOT be a real NASCAR fan. Or you are or have been one of those “I don’t wanna lose BABIES” I don’t like it either when I see Kyle leading so many laps, BUT I still can’t take my TV off the channel because I still believe ther is ALWAYS a chance for another driver to do it as it was shown in last Sundays’ race????? Come on sweetie..IT AIN’T OVER TILL IT’S OVER… get into it or get out of it!

    I can’t believe that Kyle doesn’t have any fans but hewould have MORE fans if he would stop being such a jerk like he was after he wrecked Jr.His T.V. intervies And smile on his face says alot. I liked Kyle for along time but after he took Jr. out KNOWING what that race win would mean to Jr. I just think he could have done things differently And raced him clean. That would have helped things alot. It will be awhile before he lives it down. At times I feel sorry for him,but he’ll learn soon enough when he takes someone else out that won’t be as calm as Dale was.Good Luck Kyle
