Andrew, Bodine was, but most were not.
The HANS device was seen as overkill for most of the Cup guys back then and even Jeff Burton, one of the most progressive guys in the garage when it comes to safety wasn't wearing them then."Water for my horses, beer for my men and mud for my turtle".

As for the contention it was Dale Fans wishing Kyle was dead, no, I would never wish that and I have noticed it isn't just us Jr. fans don't like the little twerp. Denny Hamlin in the post race interview didn't seem to be too concerned and he was a teammate.
Lets face it, Kyle lives by the "win or bring me the steering wheel theory" and it will stop him from winning championships if he doesn't think a little.
He made his move too soon....and Tony caught him. Case closed.
As for your contention they ought to tear down the banks Lee Roy, you know that will happen when hell freezes over. Talladega to me is an abomination but at least Daytona demands you get a car that handles in the end. I am not a huge fan of plate racing, but you have to admit, no one can accuse it of being dull.....which is more than what I can say about Charlotte...."Water for my horses, beer for my men and mud for my turtle".

Cgs...no. If Kyle doesn't have to talk to the press, he doesn't. He wasn't in the top 5, ergo, no interviews. I bet though in the twilight of his career when he isn't winning, the press will be SICK of him.
Kyle...you should be nice to people who buy ink by the barrel and are there to cover the sport. They are our eyes and ears. A comment from you, even how ticked you were is better than the spoiled brat sulk you go into if you don't finish well."Water for my horses, beer for my men and mud for my turtle".

i think its better that Kyle didn't do an interview after the race, he was very angry (i can understand that) but that angry who knows what language wolud have come out of his mouth, i know alot of fans hate when Tony Stewart use to go off in interviews,
best thing for Kyle to do is win this weekend race and for all the fans that laugh at his bad wreck, he will have the last laugh,
