TNT in-car Snafu

Well, it was interesting, listening to Kyle Petty. I liked the recap of info as we heard what he was saying to the booth and what not, but I thought NASCAR, et al had learned lessons and had mechanisms in place to edit language.

In turn eleven, early on in the race, Kenseth had dove under Petty to take a spot, slapped him (Petty) good, and we get to hear the true, in race reaction as Kyle spats out "What the f***" on air, and we find ourselves hearing Bill Weber apologizing to us for the profanity.

TNT Spokesman Jeff Pomeroy says that the audio can't always be identified: "We can assume that audio came from one of the three cars in the accident. But we can't be sure it was Kyle." Give me a break gang. That was Kyle. Well, to be fair, it sounded A LOT like Kyle.

As Kyle put it, "everybody is a passenger today", even our ringing ears!!
