I’ve been a race fan since well, Fireball Roberts was my very first HERO.
Every race fan HAS to have Somebody to hate JMac LOL!! It’s in the rule book. My personal one is Jeff Gordon LOL!! Why do we love to hate Em? Because their just plain GOOD. And they beat our Favorite which I’m in between at the present as Everyone I’ve ever pulled for is no longer with us.
Kyle is different. In all my years I’ve never seen anyone EVERYONE disliked but, Kyle loves it and well He should, NOTHING says GREAT better ; )

Hi Ya JimmyMac… One of the reasons Nascar was so exciting this last year was because of kyle Busch..I always rooted for Tony to win, but I watched Kyle just as much. I couldn’t wait to see what he would do next. He could be down & almost out & out of the blue, here he’d come . Racing from the back & driving like a mad man on a mission. Sometimes he’d make it & sometimes not but it was a hoot to watch him never give up.
I watched him make moves with his car that I didn’t think it could do. I would be screaming at the TV for Tony to do the same. Tony was way too quiet this season, I didn’t see him take too many chances & I was dissapointed that he kinda gave up too quick. I am hoping Smoke will get the fire back in 2009 in his new venture & we can see him drive like I know he can.
I admire Kyle for his charity work & I think he is a good soul underneath the persona that he puts out there. His “I don’t give a damn” attitude towards his haters is hilarious & I get a kick out of him mocking all the Boo’ers in the stands.
You have to admit , he brings the passion back to racing that has been missing for some time. Good on him & as long as he stays Behind Tony on the track (lol) I will wish him great success for 2009. Punkin

Hey JMac, great story. I agree with you. Love or hate Kyle, he isn’t going away anytime soon. I also like all the drivers but Kyle has done some things to come real close to me associating the H word with him. And anyone that knows me, knows I don’t have that word in my vocabulary.
