Ross Chastain and Kyle Busch
Trackhouse Racing driver Ross Chastain has made several enemies after his recent aggressive driving on the track. He has earned the title of the new NASCAR heel with his on-track antics. The Kansas Cup race on Sunday saw the level of aggression going over the roof as he landed a clean right hook on rookie Noah Gragson amidst a heated confrontation.
But he wasn’t the only driver he pissed off on Sunday. Two times Cup series champion Kyle Busch was on the list as well. The RCR veteran was vivid and bumped the No:1 Chevy twice before his day ended with a disappointing crash on lap 167 during a re-start incident involving Brad Keselowski and Busch’s former JGR teammate Christopher Bell. He was awarded a P34 finish after ending on the wall.
Busch decided to have that bumping dual with last year’s championship spinners-up out of frustration, even though he was on the back foot due to a pit lane incident. He stayed inside the No: 1 Trackhouse car and bumped him twice to the wall just ten laps before his eventual crash. He had some explicit words for the Watermelon man after the aggressive bumping.
“He’s pissed because I’m pissed that he races like a f—ing a–hole, and so I doored him twice down the backstretch like ‘this is your warning, boy,’ Busch was heard talking to his crew on team radio. The No:8 crew quickly appreciated Busch for intimidating the Florida naïve as they believed it was a long-due gesture.

Kyle Busch had strong words for the rest of the garage as well after his early retirement
NASCAR’s all-time leading race winner had some strong words about the growing frustration in the garage over the struggles in passing with the Next-Gen cars. He pointed out that aggressive defending from rivals, including aero blocking and pinching, cost him places as the tires get burned.
“Yeah, it wasn’t just him. It was a lot of guys. It’s a product of the car. You’re three-tenths faster than a guy, you run him down from a half-a-straightaway back, and then you just stall when you get there. You can’t maneuver, and you can’t pass, so all they do is aero-block you and pinch you and make you burn your tires up, and then you get passed by the guy that was behind you,” Kyle Busch said.
