When will Kyle Busch learn to go easy on his equipment?
2 races this weekend, 2 blown engines. that's an awful lot of work he's making for his team.

How do you go "easy" on your equipment at Daytona?
You put your foot to the floor, and leave it there.

I agree with Josh on this one. They need to give Kyle better equipment. You shouldn't have to go easy on your race car. You just build your racing machines to the point where it will kill you before you kill it. With a rev limiter, all you really have to worry about is ruining the transmission by improper shifting. Anything else is just losing traction, which shouldn't hurt the engine or chassis, unless it's over revved, or over revved when it's not under load. It's been known that the technicians for the 18 team have screwed up many times. I personally think something is wrong over at JGR. Someone needs to crack the whip over there and not be so complacent with the people they have. JGR is missing out on winning championships. Unless they don't care, they're wasting the talents of Denny and Kyle, and now Matt. Maybe they should go back to Chevrolet, because I don't see Toyota winning a championship.

No doubt his chances of winning titles will increase when he learns some patience. He is the antithesis of his now teammate Kenseth. Matt will take a 15th place car and find a way to finish 9th with it. Kyle takes the car and puts in the wall. Maybe Matt will rub off on him a little. But even take it easy on equipment Matt broke yesterday too.

He is a hot head who want to drive a car anywhere. In the Daytona 500 a driver puts the pedal to the metal and holds on. I doubt he did anything differently yesterday that caused his engine to blow.

About the same time Matt Kenseth does I would guess. I think Truex's engine also went south, which means they have a problem with those TRD engines.
