Kurt Busch used some colorful language while threatening a reporter on pit road.  Busch isn't a hothead or anything.

NASCAR driver Kurt Busch is well known for having a horrible temper.  He has displayed his short fuse many times.  Busch is currently on probation for going wacko in Ryan Newman’s pit box at Darlington Raceway during a Sprint Cup race on May 12th.  However, being on probation didn't stop Kyle Busch from going wacko yet again when he had some harsh words for Sporting News reporter Bob Pockrass.

The reporter was asking Busch about a dispute he had with driver Justin Allgaier during a Nationwide Series race at Dover on Saturday.  Busch was asked if being on probation impacted that way he was racing.  "It (the probation) refrains me from not beating the (expletive) out of you right now, because you ask me stupid questions," Busch responded.  Wow, when a driver says that probation prevents him from beating the "s--t" out of a reporter, you officially have a loose cannon.  It'll be interesting to see how NASCAR responds.  They might not do much at all.  Stay tuned.
