Offical Statement from Nascar on the Richard Childress and Kyle Busch incident

Nascar Statement June 5, 2011

“Nascar has reviewed the incident involving Richard Childress and Kyle Busch after the Nascar Camping World Truck Series race Saturday at Kansas Speedway. We have met with all parties involved and have determined what happened yesterday is unacceptable and will not be tolerated by Nascar

Richard Childress’ actions were not appropriate and fell short of the standard we expect of owners in this sport. We have met with Childress this morning and made our position very clear to him. Further, we expect he will make it clear to all in his organization to ensure this situation does not escalate any further. We will announce our actions regarding this incident Monday.

Kyle Busch remains on probation with Nascar and we continue to watch his actions carefully. However, we have determined that Kyle’s involvement in this incident does not violate his probation and no further action is required.
