He also said he loves it when the fans sit down as he passes the 88 car.

He's a pretty darn good racecar driver.....he should let his driving do the talking for him because IMO it's stupid, immature, and looks arrogant when you challenge the fans. Besides, the fans are the paying customer. He wouldn't be doing what he's doing for a living if it wasn't for the fans. No matter who their favorite driver is.

If he likes being the badguy then he's going to have to take everything that goes along with it......including the boos.

Thank you. I didn't want to repeat myself. Besides, I don't talk about him anymore.

I've never heard a driver comment about the fans in a derogatory way in all the years I've been following racing.

I have more to add, but I won't. Talking about him gives him power. I wont do that.

Penny ... it wasn't all that long ago that Tony uttered a derogatory word about the fans. It seemed like a vary calculated shot and not something off the cuff. I'll agree that it doesn't happen often and I'll chance it by repeating myself once again in reference to Kyle and his trashing of the fans ... it is nothing more than a matter of perception. If someone is convinced he did it ... then he did it. If another doesn't feel he trashed the fans ... then no amount of discussion will change their mind. I just enjoy watching him muscle through the crowd of, wanna be winners, drivers.

Agreed. But tell me, what did Tony say?

OMG! What a nasty, volatile site! I didn't catch Tony's comments ... but I believe you ... being on dial-up, it'll take me an hour to see the entire video.
