"I was going to ease out not wanting to be three wide and I think the 14 hit me from behind. He had been acting impatient there before. I will damn sure pay him back I promise you that," stated Burton after the Jim Stewart 300 in Richmond Virginia on Sunday.
Uh NASCAR, have you sent an invitation to Mr. Burton to visit you in the big yellow trailer? I'll be looking to see that you did. I mean, Tony Stewart didn't threaten anyone did he? This sure sounds like "actions detrimental to the sport of auto racing" to me.
Meanwhile Sterling Marlin was all class, "Well he's excited. We raced hard all day and hardly touched all day. I got loose and when you get loose you correct and the front end goes up. If that's what he thinks that's what he thinks."
How about this Mr. Burton, the next time Dave Blaney has a little trouble and needs to slow up, don't stick your nose in the middle of a three wide situation and you will not have a problem. When you stuck your nose in there you should have gone on with it. Sterling thought you were and he was going behind you. When you decided you had screwed up and checked up Sterling was committed. You lost. Stick to your commitment next time. Or check up yourself next time and Sterling won't be trying to follow you through. But if you yes, no, wait, maybe, next time, you'll get hit again.
