NASCAR Bristol 500: David Ragan taps Kurt Busch into the wall
David Ragan gave Kurt Busch a little bump into the wall during the Irwin Tools Night Race at Bristol Motor Speedway.
Ragan Smash!
Well almost.
As David Ragan and Kurt Busch fought for position during the Irwin Tools Night Race at Bristol Motor Speedway, the two came into contact with each other, which resulted in Kurt Busch getting sideways into the wall.
As the two came around a turn, it looked like David Ragan got right into the back corner of Busch’s car, and as a result, Busch got sideways into the wall which cost him positions on the track.

While it doesn’t look good, it’s the definition of short-track racing and there was really nothing that Ragan could do as he couldn’t anticipate Busch slowing down in front of him.
That’s just the way it happens at Thunder Valley and luckily neither guy would have their race ended as a result of the minor collision.
As fate would have it however, David Ragan would spin out not long after and hit the wall himself. It may not have been deserved karma, but Ragan in the end got what he unintentionally gave out to Busch.
