Busch has picked up where he left off in 2010 as far as dominating in the two lower series and snatching up as many wins as possible. I am sre that the CWTS and Nationwide Series regulars wish that he would at least share some of the harware he has collected as of late, but I doubt they would hold their breath. Kyle Busch is not one to share.
Ask Carl Edwards. Cousin Carl was knocked off the track on Sunday due to Kyle Busch's unwillingness to share the track. At least, that is how Edwards saw it. It is quite probable that Busch became loose and during an attempt to straighten his car, he came in contact with Edwards' #99 Ford Fusion.
Of course, there is one competitor from Sunday that may like the "new and improved" Kyle Busch. After loosing the lead to Busch late in Sunday's race, mostly due to a caution, Jeff Gordon was left the unenviable task of trying to run down the edgy driver. Gordon did so with a few laps left, and after taking a little air off Busch's rear spoiler, Gordon made it along side the #18 and finally made the pass.
Busch dented in the right side of Gordon in the process... Nope.
Busch bumped Gordon going into the corner to get him loose... Nope.
Busch merely accepted that his car could not keep Gordon's out of first; at least, not at that point of the race.
Perhaps Busch's left driving glove was catching on a new ring and prevented him from trading a little paint in the effort of slowing Gordon down. Perhaps his new cheery disposition caused him to want to share victory lane a little. I doubt it.
More than likely, Busch is tired of looking at race trophies and is making a change to help him stop Jimmie Johnson from changing from "Five Time" to "Six Time."

It's inevitable, we all grow more mellow with age but Kyle's mellow and yours or mine will be completely different. It's a matter of where you are at the beginning. Me? I've always been easy to get along with (just don't talk politics... I'm pretty one way on that!). You're probably able to control yourself considering what you may be confronted with as a public saftety person. Now Kyle on the other hand is pretty high strung and has probably been so all his life. Mellow for him might look like hyper to you and super-hyper to me!
Personally, I like that huge will to win, that get out of my way I've got an appointment for Victory Lane attitude.
Maybe that's why I'm attracted to the guy. He's been honest to his core, not apologizing for the way he is. I hope he doesn't lose that.
Kyle DOES share.
He busted up the trophy guitar at Nashville to share it with his crew... LOL
I think Kyle was just feeling the guilt of taking a swipe at Newman and missing him and taking out Carl instead and couldnt bear the thought of taking out fan fav Big Daddy on the way to his first win in 66 races. Not mellower maybe just smarter? Women *can* do that for ya! LOL
