Busch Series News 8/24/04
Permalink  

It was announced today that Bobby Hamilton Jr., was released from the Marines #25 Busch car of Team Rensi, and Jeff Green will wheel the car immediately beginning at the bullring of Bristol.  PR reports had already given Hamilton Jr. the NNC #32 Tide sponsored ride for 2005, replacing Ricky Craven.  No word yet as to where Bobby will be going for the remainder of the BGN season.  It would be no surprise to see him make some more starts in the Cup Series before the end of the year.

Busch results for 8/27/04 Bristol Race
Permalink  

Dale Earnhardt Jr., in a very popular win, takes the BGN victory in a green, white, checker finish.  Matt Kenseth, (who appeared to think he may have been able to take Jr., if it hadn't been for the restart), comes in a close second.  Point leader Matin Truex was not happy at all with Greg Biffle, who caused a wreck that injured Martin Truex's top 5 running car.  Lots of cautions, 13 in fact, for a total of 87 laps.  Follow the link below for the unofficial results from tonight's Busch action.

Robby Gordon got his first win in a Busch Series race tonight in Richmond Virginia, in the Fruit of the Loom #55 car.  The Emerson Radio 250 win seemed to be going home with Casey Atwood, despite not changing tires for over half the race.  With 15 laps to go, Gordon passed Casey for the win, but Atwood soldiered on to keep the runner-up spot.  Point leader and Northeast favorite, Martin Truex Jr., finished in the respectable third spot.  Great Busch race tonight, really looking forward to the "fight for the cut for the chase for the cup".......whew!

Kansas results 10/9/04

It was a wild finish to the MR GOODCENTS 300 Busch series race at the Kansas Speedway. Tony Stewart in the DEI #81, look to be on his way to his first ever BGN win. But contact with Joe Nemecheck while racing for the lead with less than 5  laps to go sent Stewart into the wall and out of the race. Nemecheck then beat Greg Biffle by inches for the victory in a green white checker finish. For the complete finishing order follow the  link below.

Busch "BAD BOY" Tony Stewart
Permalink  

Well, it looks like Tony Stewart is at it again. For anyone that missed it, here is a replay of the events: In Saturday's Busch series race at the Kansas Speedway Tony and Mike Bliss had some extracirricular activities under caution, with Bliss hitting the back of Stewart's car and Tony swerving at him in retaliation. So whats the big deal you ask? It's Tony Stewart, he is always stiring things up right? Bliss drives for Joe Gibbs Racing in the Busch series, Stewart drives for Gibbs in the Nextel Cup Series and apparently after the race, inside a Joe Gibbs Racing hauler words were exchanged and a shoving match ensued. Now according to Nascar they are "investigating" but dont forsee much coming out of this because they are considering this basically a "family spat" and because it had taken place in a BGN event it wouldnt effect his "Cup eligibility". Now Openwheelracer is also known for "stiring" things up, so here goes. Remember Kevin Harvick and his actions in a Truck Series race at Martinsville getting him sat out of the Cup race the next day, and Jimmy Spencers now famous punching of Kurt Busch getting him suspended from all three Nascar events (which he had rides in Truck, Busch, and Cup that weekend) at Bristol the following week. Now is this a case of "kick it" under the rug by Nascar, because we have already probably shot  ourselves in the foot with the whole Dale Jr thing, and messed up our Chase for the CUP by taking points from Jr and we dont want to do it to Stewart as well? Feel free to comment race fans, tell me if im right on, or give it a rest and let the "boys play"!
