I know some people hear will rip me apart for using the term "Punk" but deal with it. I am sure he has been called worse. Like others have said in the past....The Apple did not fall to far from the tree when discribing Kevin.
I second what Stagger says. That's the way I've seen it, too. Respect of others is the biggest difference.

A man is about as big as the things that make him angry.

Ask Mr. Cowboy... I am sure he can tell you much of what you ask too know.

You know for being such an a** we give that punk too much press around here. Let's try and use the "if you ignore it, it will go away" theory.

Sam i have it on DVR at the house. They were with Clayon in-car and Swindell drove straight overtop of him, causing Clayton to flip and Kevin kept going. Under red Clayton went over to the 9 on the frontstretch and got to about his front bumper before getting popped by Sammy. In Clayton's interview he said that Sammy hit him in the head and kicked his face while he was down. And that was about it. I'll try to get it on dvd and get it to you.

And concerning the race and same team... did anyone else question when Kevin pulled into the pits later in the A complaining that he didn't have brakes, and the crew checked the rear end and saw that the rotor was missing....and then had the push truck put him back on the track? (only to be black flagged before green)

just some thoughts

LOL.... ask Windom and check the burnout marks on his hood... I am sure it was merely accident. Brake's were out... throttle worked fine though. :rolling:

Run out of brakes? I believe I have heard Tony Stewart utter the line that may or may not be suitable here, "He ran out of talent"
