Even Jr. Sees it....
Not to belabor the point too much, but for those who seem to take exception to the comparisons between Kyle Busch's driving style and Dale Earnhardt Sr.'s, here's a bit from Little E himself:
“On the racetrack, there may be some comparisons there,” Earnhardt Jr. said Thursday. “He’s fast. He’s running well. He’s quick. He’s aggressive.”
“That’s the way dad raced and Kyle has that same style,” Earnhardt Jr. continued. “Very aggressive.”
Of course, coming from Jr. , I don't know if that is necessarily a compliment. He has said previously that he thought his daddy's racing style was too agressive at times...

HMPH. Well, let's hope Shrub puts it in victory lane at Darlington. Put this behind us.
