is Rick Hendrick kicking himself ???

Not kicking himself. Dale Jr. is a fantastic hire, both in publicity and performance. Furthermore, Hendricks has been off a touch this year. Jeff & Jimmie have had more then their share of bad luck, and Dale has fallen off at the end of the race more times then not. In these same situations I imagine Kyle would be complaining and being difficult. (I think Casey is a problem, and is probably going to have to go if he can't get it together.)

Kyle just had great fortune to be with Gibbs right now. They are getting everything right, and the team they have put together for Kyle is working great.

Oh now look here, the 5 has slipped off the map this season, I'm sure someone on these boards said this would happen before the season started...

Let me see, Kyle Bush/Dale Jr who is worth more $? ...............No contest!
On his best day, Kyle will NEVER draw sponsors the way Jr does.

i think kyle busch has a racing style closer to dale sr than dale jr does
dale jr inhereited the dale sr fans but he may not keep them all

Not so, Sr would have never pulled a cheap shot, like Brat Bush pulled today on the restart. If were Gordon, I would poke him in the nose and send him on a wild ride the next time we met. Total bush league stuff (pardon the pun)!

And what did Bush do to Jeff Gordon? I thought it was Carl Edwards and Gordon that got together on the last restart.

Gordon said it best, he was laying back with everyone else, so Kyle slowed the restart, smart move by Mr. Busch

The restart was way to slow, he backed up the field. Gordon saidhe was holding back, wait till he watches the video, they were all over Bushes rear end

The other issue too is Toyota and how few expected Toyota snatching one team meant so much to their dominance.

because everyone was laying back, Busch wanted to keep the field bunched
