As far the pit crew guy almost getting hit, please, the guy stood there until Kurt's car pulled up and only jumped out of the way at the last second.

Tony is just as much at fault as Kurt. Both should have been fined and suspended.

If Tony started putting more effort into winning and less into pissing off other drivers, he might actually win some.

I saw the video clip on youtube.com if anyone else missed or you can google it; "kurt busch incident".

Oh, man! Way off base here. Bait and trap? Are you kidding me? Is it Tony's fault that Kurt performed that stunt in the pits? No! Beyond that, I'm sure it is not Tony's intent to p'off anyone.

Hello? If your impression is that Tony's pit member jumped out of the way at the last minute it's only because Kurt's actions weren't expected. As the commentators said, the pits are "sacred ground".

I'll leave it at that before I get in trouble ...

Back to the penalty ...

A $100,000 fine is nothing to these guys. Many commentators have said that in addition to the fines and points, Kurt should have been suspended for at least one race. That'll get him where it hurts. Let him sit home on Sunday and watch someone else drive his car!

I don't understand the owner points reduction. Penske? Yet again, there are many things about NASCAR that I don't fully understand ...

Yea they should of parked him for atleast a race, watch another guy race his car (which has to be the crappiest feeling to a racer) and think about wat he did. And like u said money aint nothing to these guys

Thats what Kyle Petty was saying in the booth. He even said $100,000. is nothing to them. And he also said they should not have docked Penske owner points for something that was solely driver and not the team.

That's right. Kyle's comments, among others, is what prompted my post. Most of the commentators I've heard are of the same opinion as I am. $100,000? Big deal! I was actually surprised that most commentators were as straight up as they were with their opinions.

Was it also during Kyle's comments in the booth that someone brought up the question of what the fine(s) might have been if a member of Tony's crew actually got hurt? I know I heard that question somewhere ...

I'd go one step further and just hit him with a huge points deduction with no $ fine. Take the 100 loss in points, and add another 100 for the fine, and another 100 for the owner fine. 300 points! At the end of the season, that'll bite him in the @ss. How many points did Jr. lose last year for using a four-letter-word in Victory Lane? Or Mikey for his so-called cheating?

Oh, well. I guess it's all water under the bridge now.
