Busch Wrecks Biffle; Sparks Cat Fight
(Filed under: Race Recap)So Greg Biffle dominates early and laps almost half the field today at Texas. After pitting under caution Biffle finds himself back in the pack and pulls ahead of his former teammate and lap down car, Kurt Busch. Bad idea. Busch doesn't give him room and taps Biffle's rear end, starting him wiggling, scrapping the wall and then hits him again and sends Biffle around. For the umpteenth time this year Biffle has bad luck with a great car.
Biffle says Busch wasn't observing proper race etiquette and giving him room. Busch says he doesn't know what happened and thinks Biffle dropped a cylinder. Dropped a cylinder?!
The incident also prompted Greg Biffle's girlfriend Nicole to visit Busch's pit and have a heated exchange with Busch's fiance Eva. Cat fight!
So what's with Kurt Busch? He's not exactly making friends this year, especially with former teammates (He pulled the bump and run on Matt Kenseth at Bristol and bumped Jeff Burton at Martinsville). He wasn't exactly winning fans with his behavior at the end of last year either. Then again, controversy is nothing new for Busch.
Update: Biffle's girlfriend reprimanded by NASCAR. I haven't seen such a ludicrous headline in a while.
