Since last weekend’s chaotic race at the Circuit of the Americas, there has been a massive debate raging. It pertains to driver etiquette on race tracks, particularly on road courses. One driver who felt particularly aggrieved was Richard Childress Racing driver Kyle Busch. In light of this, former NASCAR driver Kenny Wallace offered his two cents on the situation. He put forward a rather controversial solution to the problem, which can end up being rather humiliating for Joey Logano.

Wallace mentioned on his YouTube channel, “I remember Joey Logano saying, ‘Listen, I am two-faced.’

“I get that, okay? But can you imagine every driver lined up in the NASCAR Series and went to Joey Logano and said, ‘Man! You showed no respect. You’re a dirty driver.’

“That hurts. But that’s the only way this is going to end.”

Kenny Wallace reveals that such punishment has been implemented in NASCAR in the past

Kenny Wallace revealed that public humiliation had been used as a punishment in his racing days. The culprit and subsequent victim was 1991 Daytona 500 winner Ernie ‘Swervin Irvan’ Irvan. Apparently, the former NASCAR star had built himself a notoriety for wrecking multiple drivers. As a result, the paddock took drastic action as desperate times call for desperate measures.

Wallace continued, “I’m going to tell you, that’s what Ernie Irvan had to do at Talladega in the drivers’ meeting. Ernie Irvan wrecked so many people, the whole garage area was talking bad about Ernie.

“Ernie Irvan stood up in front of everybody at the garage at Talladega and said, ‘I want to apologize to all the drivers. I’ve been driving like an idiot.’ All the drivers forgave him and then everybody loved Ernie.”

Needless to say, the tactic worked and Irvan was sincere in his apology.

Will the issues raised by Kyle Busch be addressed?

Of course, one really has to wonder if the drivers would be receptive to such actions. However, at this rate, anything would be just fine because more and more drivers are expressing their displeasure with the code of conduct. Kyle Busch was one of the biggest dissenters against the ultra-aggressive style of racing. Also backing him was Hendrick Motorsports’ replacement driver, Jordan Taylor, who had similar complaints.

However, it’s one thing to talk about drivers not giving respect to each other. It’s a whole different thing to act on such complaints when one is getting bumped on each turn while racing. It seems that unless a collective effort is made by all parties involved, the issue will not get resolved.
