NASCAR KYLE BUSCH SPINS OUT RON HORNADAY!!!!!!!! HOLY CRAP!!!!!!!

Kyle Busch suspended for Cup race for actions in Truck race

Kyle Busch has been parked for Sunday's Sprint Cup Series race and Saturday's Nationwide Series race at Texas Motor Speedway after intentionally crashing Ron Hornaday in Friday night's Camping World Truck Series race.
"[Busch being parked for Friday night's race is] done under section 9.12 of the rulebook, that gives NASCAR the authority to react during a race weekend. And following the event and after a good deal of conversation and discussion, NASCAR has decided to maintain that parked position on the driver of the 18 truck for the balance of the weekend," NASCAR president Mike Helton said Saturday morning.
"So basically what that means is that Kyle Busch will not be participating today or tomorrow in the NASCAR event here in Texas."

Joe Gibbs, Busch's team owner in the Cup and Nationwide Series, was at home in North Carolina and not at the track Friday night. He flew to Texas Saturday morning and met with NASCAR officials and Busch. Gibbs said he "trusts" NASCAR's decision. He would not divulge what he told Busch in their 1-on-1 meeting, but did say they "needed to get out here and meet with everybody we needed to meet with." In other words, Busch, who was not kicked out of the track, needs to make the rounds to apologize.
Busch's suspension is the first for a driver after the "Boys have at it" declaration from NASCAR — a statement that's been pointed to numerous times over the past two years when it comes to driver discipline.
"The responsibility that over the past two or three seasons we've given back to the drivers came, I think, with a very clear understanding that there could be a line that got crossed," Helton said. "And as annoying as the comments that I've made personally in the past of 'we'll know it when we see it' might have been, we saw it last night."
Michael McDowell will drive Busch's No. 18 car on Sunday.
Busch is currently in seventh place in the Chase for the Sprint Cup standings, 57 points behind points leader Carl Edwards with three races to go. Busch met with series officials before the start of Saturday morning's first practice session at Texas Motor Speedway.
While passing a lap car, Ron Hornaday gets loose and slides up into Kyle Busch. Both drivers get into the wall and the caution is thrown. While under yellow, Kyle Busch shows his displeasure off by hooking Ron into the wall head on, identical to Jeff Gordon and Jeff Burton last season. Kyle would get parked and Ron's championship hopes are diminished.
After both drivers slide into the wall in Turn 2 Kyle Busch crashes Ron Hornaday in Turn 3 ending the No. 33's night and title chances.
