If Kurt gets in to the program will get the sport on the racing news for more than 2 minutes like normal.. That has to help....

Re: Kurt Busch
 

The way I see it, Kurt Busch delivered in grand style; creating a huge amount of publicity for drag racing over the last few weeks. I'm sure it'll be mentioned more during the coverage of this weekend's NASCAR race in Bristol too. Everything I heard him say about drag racing was very complimentary. Here's a recent interview:

I think Kurt Busch did a great job driving and with the tv air time he got on ESPN was all positive for our sport of drag racing.

Re: I haven't seen any comments about Kurt Busch
 

I watched the races last weekend. Both John Force and Kurt Bush lost in the first round, however Bush had more air time than Force, both being first round loser's.

who ?? i was more concerned about Super stock and stock that some one named kurt bushed

Re: I haven't seen any comments about Kurt Busch
 

Im with Don on this....who really cares. Did it help with the problems we have in stock and S/S any? NO....its all a marketing farce just because Kurt Bashed is a super star on the NASCAR circuit.

Re: I haven't seen any comments about Kurt Busch
 

All the local papers had big stories on Busch getting beat in the first round of Pro stock at the NHRA Gatornationals this last weekend,but no info on the winners,or anything else about the race!!!!

Re: I haven't seen any comments about Kurt Busch
 

The speed channel show I saw was running a ticker tape on the bottom and it mentioned Line defeating Anderson and then stated Enders defeated Busch. When have they ever mentioned a first round loss?

The show highlight was when they questioned why Carl Edwards was not penalized after his team allowed a tire to roll away from his pit area during a stop in the race he won. Seems questionable rulings are everywhere.

Re: I haven't seen any comments about Kurt Busch
 

You don't need to watch that show if you are looking for S/SS... Just tune in right here on class racer for your latest and greatest info.........You know there are a few pro guys racing in stock ,but you never here about them either.......Think about it....We are the low man on the totum pole........SAD but true....

Re: I haven't seen any comments about Kurt Busch
 

Wife passed me the paper the other day. "oh look, there is something about dragracing here".
The more I read, the madder I got.
-Note to the stick and ball $%^&holes at reuters-
1) The cars are in a "PIT " not a "paddock"
2) Kurt "QUALIFIED" 23rd, not "was seeded in the 23rd spot"

The whole thing was very poorly written and was off the mark on every nuance of the sport.
Obviously the clown didn't even watch stockcar racing or any other form of motorsports
either.
Not sure if I agree with "any news is better than no news". This certainly didn't help dragracing in anyway, maybe showed a professional driver from the vaunted nascar can't step in and show lowly dragracers how to drive.

And I echo the sentiment, this is a sportsman forum, Kurt who?
