I dont like the number 18 even a little bit.

But:---The guy goes out there every week with a car that is practically the same as all the other cars out there and drives rings around the other drivers.

He is either waaay over his head and lucky as hell or he is better than the rest.
Does he have a horseshoe up his ass or is he just that much better than the rest.?
Is his team getting away with an illegal faster car or are the rest just not up to driving with him?

Same tires same rules ,yet this guy comes back all the way from the rear and wins.

I know some guys have great years but he has double the wins of anyone else this year.

Like him or not he is the hottest thing on the track.

I loved that pompous bow he did after the race. He was like "What ya booing me for" and then did his pompous bow while the effing tards were throwing beer cans at him (and I hope every single one of them are banned from attending future races).

At least he can handle the boos.

Everyone's been complaining about the sport becoming "boring."

So, we get a guy who steps up to make it interesting by antagonizing the fans a little, talking smack, and talking about how he's going to win races.

Then the dude backs his chit up on the racetrack, the fans boo him and gives them an entertaining postrace celebration.

NASCAR's needed someone for fans to hate. Love him or hate him, the dude's gonna fill some of those empty seats.

Yes, Kyle is a good driver with a crappy attitude. However, no, the cars are not all the same. They may appear the same body wise , but such things as suspension mounting points are totally different. A 1/16 inch different in mounting the suspension can have huge effects on the slip angle of the tire, kingpin, coefficient of friction achieved from the tire, load, etc. Kyle Busch is also a guy who can drive the car with a lot of yaw which really gets the car to turn well, however it can feel really unstable. All this effects the forces of the car and the way the car handles. The gibbs teams and engineering department are on top of it for the most part, well at least the 18 and 20, the 20 just has no luck and I dont' think with his situation of him leaving the team is helping.
