Has Kyle Busch Stolen Someones Thunder?

May be...

Well, I can't stand the kid. A checkers or wreckers attitude hardly makes someone a great driver. He only has five wins in his three year career. So calling him a top notch driver is a little far fetched. I think his attitude is horrible. Crying and throwing fits really has no place in NASCAR. He has no regards for other drivers. One of these times he's going to tangle with the wrong guy, and it's going to be Tony. Tony will set him straight. See, the real problem is where all his fans are coming from? I'm a Gordon fan, and I remember going to races last year and hearing Kyle get booed. The only reason people are paying attention to Kyle is because Hendrick got Jr, who "replaced" Kyle. If Jr. would of gone to another team, and Hendrick got some unknown driver, no one would be talking about Kyle right now.

Yes the Kyle bashers need to grow up and get a life. Kyle is the new Instigator, those of us old enough to remember Earnhardt's early years see how Kyle is just like he was. How many of these Kyle bashers will suddenly be Kyle's biggest fans after he wins a few championships?

Comparing Wild Thing to The Instigator, Kyle has only one less win than Earnhardt did in nine fewer starts. Go Kyle!

The big trade is becoming the joke of NASCAR...way to go KYLE, good luck at Texas...

I think Kyle Busch is earning his thunder. In racing you don't don't steal someones thunder you have to make your own. Also you don't have to win races to be thunderous.

JR is a decent driver, and his popularity is from his father. He is a good spokesman and is good for the sport. He has never been and never will be as good as Kyle. This kid just has raw talent and it's no knock on JR. But the JR fans of today are like the Gordon fans of old, most of which just jumped on the popularity band wagon. The majority of them are Sunday fans that don't know a lug nut from a lug wrench. These are the ones that can't take criticism, although JR has some true race fans that know racing. I know the thumb downs are coming, and I will take them coming from the Sunday fans that don't know a lug nut from a lug wrench.

I believe it could only be Joe Gibbs at the helm helping him in what Kyle does best, drive a racecar. Gibbs has been a leader for some time now and knows exactly how to motivate people into giving it there best. Joe also being a Spiritual person that he is maybe Kyle is leaning towards accepting God also and if he does that it can only help him in his everyday life and help him become a better driver. I think it has everything to do with Gibbs himself.

It seems by reading the answers on here lately that a certain group of fans can't stand him! I've been on here along time and a large group of fans find fault in everything he does. That group of answerers are fans of one driver!
Is it because Kyle not only changed teams, but that team also changed nameplates?
Or is it because he won first this season and the first time for Toyota?
I'm not a fan of either just wondering what's up??

I hear you . But these fans will never admit it directly and run and tattle if you don't answer withen the guide lines.

Im not sure why this certain group of fans cant stand Kyle Bush, but iv got news for them, they better get used to hate'n him for a long time, because hes here, and he's good!, probably the brightest young talent to come along since Jeff Gordon. I dont always agree with what he does on and off the track. As a fan i love the fact that hes aggressive on the track, and opinionated off. Thats good for the sport. I think ppl sometimes forget that he's still a kid, and so he's gunna make mistakes now and again, its all part of growing up.

Kyle hasn't stolen anyone's thunder, he has simply moved up and is showing his talents and skills. He will be a force to be reckoned with. Welcome to the Gibbs stable Kyle! We're glad to have you.

It sure seems he has!!!!!

There are lots of reason I dislike him. I declared him my second favorite driver last year, back when he was in the chase and was (sort of) a nobody.

I don't hate the fact that he's teammates with Hamlin or Stewart, that doesn't bother me much. Toyota... who cares? He's a good driver in his own way; compared to Jeff Burton or Mark Martin, he's probably the exact opposite - he is CRAZY!

That's one thing that bothers me - his driving technique. ESPECIALLY during his win at Atlanta, on the last lap when he was bumping Dale Jarret to get out of the way, when he had over a second lead... his impatience drives me nuts. Someone needs to tell this kid to just stay calm and just cruise.

Publicity has driven me crazy, too. Don't get me wrong, he probably deserves it because of how great his year has been this season, at one point leading all three NASCAR series, but give it a break guys! For the last four race pre-shows, Kyle Busch has been the main topic...

I don't think hate is the word for Kyle Busch, I think I'm just tired of him. During the race, the cameramen always jerk the camera away to watch him move from 43rd to 10th in two laps. Then next week, during the pre-show they talk about it, show replays 30 times an hour...
