That is what Richard Childress got for punching Kyle Bush.

Do think it was fair/just, or wrong ?? :confused:

Re: $150,000.00 fine probation till Dec. 31st

Even though I can't stand Shrubby and RC is the owner of my driver Burton's ride, I think the punishment was inline. It can't be a free for all in the pits. Owners should know better and should keep their emotions in check. Owner against driver isn't good. In this case, technically Bush is an owner too. Although, I see him as a kid with way too much money.

I understand what lead up too it and I understand RC's emotions because of the actions in the past and present w/Shrubby, but, he still needs to be the bigger man and not let himself get into that situation. That goes for all owners. It's not like Shrubby could fight back against a 60+ year old guy and it being RC. Just think if he did. He wouldn't have been able to walk thru the pits w/o most everyone wanting to take a swing at him..... Heck, alot people want to take a poke at him b/4 this even happened...........

Seems harsh for no more damage than he did.

The fine would probably be the same if he had punched him 3 or 4 times.

All I can say, is NASCAR has sure changed!! $150K, small change when it comes to RCR, but I will never condone this type of action, I didn't condone it when it happened years ago in turn three and I will not condone it now..
