I don't think NASCAR wants to listen. If you saw the Tony Stewart interview you heard he was scared to say too much. Because he was afraid NASCAR would take it out on his drivers.

I love the man Kyle has grown into. I used to hate him, and the last 2 seasons he has become my favorite driver. Would love to see him win it all this year!

100 percent. I’m the exact same. Hated him his entire career but last couple seasons I found myself making him my favorite driver

Thanks Kenny and KB...not sure what it is but ever since you climbed into the 8, i have slowly started to become a fan.

[@Ktaurus26]

Harvick and Busch are the only ones telling the truth about NASCARs BS

[@johnhaas2523]

There's others they're just not being as outspoken about the issues. I guess you didn't hear what Bell and chase said in media availability after tire test at New Hampshire

[@scotcoon1186]

I do believe they're the senior drivers. Kurt was the senior driver and the last driver to compete in the Winston Cup series against Sr. Kevin is the last full time Winston Cup driver.

[@buffystclair9042]

Im not a scientist either but to the point , R&D shows crush points in cars absorbs impact so 100% correct , building too ridged is going to cause bad injuries or worse. Who remembers tho all the blame games on Earnharts accident and death, everyone kept saying it wasn’t that hard an impact !

[@stoopid_roofer6447]

It's plain as day!... from day 1! These next gen cars are just too rigid! You can SEE it! they have NO GIVE!

The car is not safe at all. More careers are going to end if nothing is done before the end of the year. The shadows of 2001 are ever lurking.

[@RoastBeefSandwich]

It is concerning how stiff the Next Gen is. Dallara does not know how to build a chassis to safely handle the forces that Stock Cars experience apparently. Teams knew how but that talent is now gone to "save money". NASCAR is saving so much money it hurts.

[@scotcoon1186]

I think they built it so stiff putting the chassis surviving a crash ahead of the driver surviving.

[@joefatalooch8057]

Kyle is a pro. Not many can sit where he does and be so objective. Enjoy watching him race.

I tell you what I'm a Kyle Bush fan now. I think him being involved in Brexton's racing has made him only better. Richard Childress is proof you can strike gold twice! Awesome

Great interview Kyle

[@DavidMarcy-pp6jv]

Kyle Busch needs to have the Goodwrench name on his car,if it's still available. That would be awesome.

[@CARyan08]

That would be cool. Unfortunately GM has retired the Goodwrench brand, it is now called Certified Service. Chevrolet Certified Service, Buick Certified Service etc.

[@garybattle7805]

I agree that would be great .

[@garylaw5761]

Lets go back to the old cars these cars are built way to much like a tank

[@johnhaas2523]

They already modified the rear clip And I believe they are working on a design change to the front clip and that will fix them problems. The design of the chassis to be modular is a great thing compared to the other cars

[@stew8834]

Nascar needs to quit being so petty on penalties and get there heads out of there asses and pay attention to the safety of these cars.

[@dalecrose3763]

I said the same thing they need to put him on the safety fixes cars where they don't have no impact if that would happen on the driver side call arson would be dead I said the same thing about the other cars damage great for Mister Kyle Busch to speak out about the problem and also don't worry what he does on other if he wants to raise infinity or even truck he's underwrite he's the best driver in the series

All they did was "improve" performance packages in the off-season, nothing about safety improvements. I wonder how Kurt Busch really feels about it.

A left side hit like that and we have one fewer Cup drivers.

[@driver12198]

I've commented on other vids, these cars should 100% be grounded to the garage until this is fully checked and changes are made. What's gonna happen come tomorrow if one takes this same hit to left side? Someone will die....

[@jerryscray1789]

Listen up nascar

[@espeeKeith]

Maybe it's been too long since we lost Dale, maybe the people who worked on creating this new car don't remember all the injuries and death before something was changed. Seems like similar conversations, drivers are trying to be vocal and it falls on deaf ears. Just looking at the rear structure of the new car without sheet metal, it's easy to understand why it doesn't have a crumble zone... it was built to be reusable after an accident it looks like to me.

[@johnhaas2523]

There's people who don't even work for NASCAR who are involved with this car with the design of the chassis aka the IndyCar chassis manufacturer

[@brandoncurtis6535]

Something different about kb after the joke of cars gibbs gave him last year he seems finally happy

The KFB factor LOL! That was timed perfectly - It aint talkin shit if you back it up eh~ I got pissed not being able to get to their website to check out their grills! I was thinking, what kind of people would put up as a sponsor and their website doesn't even work? 😂 I hope that makes them look like geniuses and the numbers come in to back it up.

[@budsodastories]

With McClaren do they want in Nascar like they got in irl? Thing is you weaken the front end it'll bow into the driver it should have some give and take the energy from a driver. All these engineers and chassis builders that got laid off should be bought in by Nascar to address these issues bring active ones on it too from all major teams (Hendrick Gibbs penske shr rcr etc)

[@xanaxkamikaze]

Thank you Kenny Wallace!

These new cars will eventually end more driver’s careers or life, Nascar need to get their head out of there ass

[@JROD-xs6fn]

........and here we see and hear the origins of his "speeding" penalty in the pits given to him by NASCAR this past Monday. Just like the stop watches back in the day, I'm sure the way they time the zones electronically can be compromised too. As much as I like him being outspoken and telling the truth, I wish he'd reign it in a bit.

Shit, I just thought about what if Larson had of been hit on the driver side. That would have been absolutely horrible. I’m a little confused as to why Preece had not lifted or hit the brakes earlier? Looks like he had time.They need to get rid of plate racing. It’s not racing, it’s hang on until 1 to go and Good Luck. Just like Kyle said, he got LUCKY 15 years ago.

​@Kenny Wallace I think being the senior driver (Kurt was the last full time driver to race Dale Sr in the cup series) and Kurt's injury may have hit close to home for Kyle. Kyle is one of the senior drivers now, too. I think he and Denny will be top 2 senior drivers in the cup series after Kevin's retirement.

[@johnhaas2523]

They didn't. The big issue was they was looking for a car That would be more durability to try to save teams of money and of course we get the wrong people designing the car like the chassis and The wrong people would be Dallara. The reason the rear clip was so strong last year was they was so damn concerned about a fireball because the rear bumper is that much closer to the fuel cell because the manufacturers wanted smaller wheelbase like showroom cars. Everything though with the center section is the same as was with the gen 6 or even better.
