Kurt Busch Has Another Bad Night and Ryan Newman's Team Didn't Like It!

Last weekend saw another Busch brother incident but I don't think it was what the media is making it out to be.

It all started with Kurt Busch getting loose and spinning late in the race.  Ryan Newman slowed to not hit him and got spun himself by someone else.  It was just racing and no one person caused the other person any harm.

Kurt wasn't having an optimal day as this was his second issue of the night.

But...

After pitting, apparently Busch was ticked at the world and once he finished his pit stop, peeled out through Ryan Newman's pit stall, which was in front of his.  The No. 39 team felt that was a bit haphazard.

But still, no big deal.

But then after the race, while Kurt was (per him) removing his helmet, hit Ryan's car.  That's when teams got into it with some difference of opinions and one of Ryan's guys went over to "chat!"

Nothing huge came of it, but a NASCAR official did get pushed a bit and ended up on the Kurt's hood.

To be honest, Kurt and Ryan had nothing to do with each others spin, technically.  Kurt was ticked and some sources say he was tearing up a verbal storm after his own spin.  But when he bumped Ryan's car, well, there was nothing Kurt could have been mad about and that, I'm sure, was just an accident or oversight.

But Ryan's team member might be getting an opportunity to contribute to the NASCAR foundation via a nice penalty.  We'll see what comes of that on Tuesday.
