A Four Step Plan for Kyle

What should Brad do in regards to Kyle Busch after last Saturday’s incident in the Nationwide race?

I’m not an angry person, nor am I a violent person. But my first reaction in response to this question if you were to have asked me this right after the incident would have been: Pop him one and be done with him. But would this show the results needed? Probably not.

My second and more strategic response would consist of a few different steps.

Pay back, getting even, call it what you will. I call it teaching someone a lesson who has done you wrong.

Step 1: Lurk

Be that pain in his side that just won’t go away. Wherever he is, be there. Get in his head, Brad. This will set-up the beginning of teaching him a lesson. Once you’re in his head, he will always be on edge, bound to make countless mistakes.

Step 2: Torture with Kindness

Be kind, be nice, be civil. We all know it will be in a sarcastic, smug way, but that will be what ticks him off the most. It doesn’t take much to get Rowdy in a grumpy mood, but this will certainly help.

Step 3: Beat Him

It doesn’t matter what position it is for: 30th, 15th, 10th, 5th or FIRST. It will eat away at Kyle Busch knowing that Brad is beating him in every way possible. No driver likes being beat, but no other driver handles defeat the way Kyle does. This will tie in with the “Get in his head” part of the strategy.

And if all else fails; and Kyle Busch doesn’t ruin things for himself with all of these things going on..

Step 4: Strike When He Least Expects It

I am not one for violence, and I would never wish actual harm on a driver. But Brad said it himself: there may be carnage. Brad’s guys have had to fix countless cars and trucks due to Kyle Busch, so maybe it’s time to reverse the roles and see how they feel about it. Pay back, getting even, call it what you will. I call it teaching someone a lesson who has done you wrong.
