Kyle Busch fires shots at Joey Logano over response to Austin Dillon wrecking him

Following last week’s controversy at Richmond Raceway, Kyle Busch has chimed in on what he views as somewhat hypocritical commentary by Joey Logano, who was one of the victim’s of Austin Dillon‘s overly aggressive late driving.

Logano called Dillon’s driving “chickenshit” and blasted him for the manner in which he approached the final turns in the Cook Out 400.

Busch turned around and served it right back to Logano.

“Certainly there’s the right way to win races and the wrong way to win races,” Kyle Busch said at Michigan on Saturday, via FOX Sports’ Bob Pockrass. “There’s a lot of guys that have done some desperate things to get wins even when they’re not desperate. The one that had it happen to him is probably the one that’s done it the most that doesn’t need to do it. I guess his comments he can be calling himself that.”

Busch wasn’t done there, either, digging into Logano’s history as a driver to lend some credibility to his assertion.

He pulled out an old race at Irwindale as proof Logano has done similar aggressive things at the end of a race.

“I just, somebody threw up a highlight of him from the K&N race at Irwindale years ago,” Busch said. “I forgot all about that one. Holy mackerel. Doing shit like that should never get you to the top level. But it did, so anyways. Be mindful of what you do, I guess. It’s always going to come back on you. YouTube is there for… not all positives.”

Even Kyle Busch himself has been on the wrong end of an aggressive driver near the finish line, with a famous incident with Kevin Harvick from back in the day. So he knows what it’s like to be in Logano’s shoes.

“The intent on that one, even though it didn’t net result what Harvick was looking for probably should have posted a penalty,” Busch said.

So what should a driver do exactly, to toe that line between winning a race the right way and wrong way? Or better yet, the legal way vs. the illegal way?

“You do whatever you can and whatever you think you need to do in the moment and you reap the consequences after,” Kyle Busch said.
