Question for you all: Has NASCAR ever suspended a driver for a race due to on-track antics? I know of suspensions for substance abuse or equipment violations, but aggressive driving?
Well depends on what you call the Kurt Busch almost hitting a crew member on pit road because he was mad at Tony Stewart aggressive driving. If so he was suspended for 2 races

Was he really suspended for that? I can't remember. I thought he just had points taken away and fined.
Look it up I wouldn't make something like that up.
You are mixing things up. The pit road incident was during the 2007 Autism Speaks 400 presented by VISA @ Dover. (It was Martin Truex Jr.s first win, but it was overshadowed by the death of Bill France Jr, who passed away during the race.) Kurt was docked 100 championship points, fined $100,000, and placed on probation until the end of the year, but was NOT suspended. Kurt WAS suspended at the end of the 2005 season, but by Roush, not NASCAR, over his run in with Maricopa County Sheriff deputies on November 11, 2005, when he was pulled over for suspicion of drunken driving and cited for reckless driving. Kenny Wallace drove the 97 car for the final two races of the season while Kurt moved on to Penske.

And to be honest that one REALLY doesn't count because Jack only did it as crybaby cause Kurt was leaving him... if Kurt was still going to run for him he wouldn't have been suspended. Lol still though... I will forever remember Kenny's early morning smile when Jack cut in mid broadcast on sunday to ask if he would run the 97...

That's why you don't retaliate at tracks like that. Keselowski could have gotten killed, and even flown into the stands.

Also, it wasn't Keselowski's fault that Edwards came down on him. If anything, it was RACING.

What made me lose tons of respect for Carl Edwards was that he chicken shitted his way through the initial interview and then pulled that crap.
