I have been a fan of pe since 1975 and i got used to seeing that big smile and I can only imagine how big that smile in heaven would be to see that 45 up front where Adam would be.So Kyle for all of the fans that cried when your son got killed on that horrible day put that car where it should be up front with that big petty grin that your dad made famous. GO 43 &45 I know there will be a big celebration in heaven when one of those cars are sitting in victory lane this year.So you new fans that do not know the history of Kyle Petty just shut up and let the man drive for ever how long he damn well pleases. I will be at martinsville and texas the site of Adams first cup start I wish you the best of luck and look foward to alot of good race days this year.ronaldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18046323987422572173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-79466403068727448842008-01-23T01:12:00.000-05:002008-01-23T01:12:00.000-05:00I'm very excited to see that Kyle will be back!

I do mind that they seem to feel that their opinions are the only ones worth having and denigrate anyone who argues with them. <BR/><BR/>As a result, I can't say I'll be watching this show. Unless the "media" panelist is Erik K. Then I'd watch simply for the fireworks. In some respects, Erik and Kyle's arrogance is evenly matched.

I wouldn’t say that it means more to me than any other driver out there, but I do think we have a more vested interest in what happens each weekend. That may come across as ‘fiery’ on the program.”<BR/><BR/>Note to Kyle: Wanting to be seen as "Firey" is not an excuse to be rude or a jerk to the other guests on the show.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-50911532571385315592008-01-22T16:10:00.000-05:002008-01-22T16:10:00.000-05:00I do not dislike Kyle Petty.

He's a terrible driver, and he doesn't even appear to like being a driver. Why does he do it? Becasue of his dad? Because of the money? Because he doesn't have anything else to do? Because it will keep the Petty name current?'<BR/><BR/>Kyle does like being a driver and he is still very passionate about the sport and racing. Why does he do it? Because his son, Adam Petty, isn't here anymore. If you will remember, Adam was killed at Loudon on May of 2000 during a practice session. The 45 car was going to be Adam's ride in the Cup series. <BR/><BR/>As for Kyle 'needing something to do' I tend to think that he's got plenty of things to keep him busy. There's his work at Petty Enterprises, Victory Junction, his other charity work and the possible opening of another camp for ill children. Not to mention his family and home life. <BR/><BR/>Another reason that Kyle is in the 45 car is because PE does not have another driver ready to take over yet. From what I've gathered through articles and interviews I've seen, PE is going to take their time and make sure that the driver who replaces Kyle is really, truly ready for the Cup series. They aren't going to just pluck some young kid from another series and put him in that car without proper, old-fashioned racing preparation. I'm hoping that Chad McCumbee is the one who will get that ride as he seems like a real down-to-earth, genuine, well-mannered young man, that he'd be a good fit for the PE organization. <BR/><BR/>Regardless of who is driving the 45 car when Kyle decides to stop racing, it will be the first time since 1949 that a Petty has NOT been in a PE car on the track. It will be the end of that part of racing history. <BR/><BR/>As a fan who appreciates the legacies of the families that helped make the sport what it is today, that is not a day that I look forward to.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-50929090489037233632008-01-22T13:52:00.000-05:002008-01-22T13:52:00.000-05:00I like Kyle Petty.

However, I agree that while Kyle should be able to express himself and allow his personality to shine through, I disagree with any of the shows degenerating into a bunch of disparaging or angry commentary. I'm not a fan of any of the shows that do that, NASCAR related or otherwise.

The DVR tends to find it most of the time, but if qualifying or another show runs long, Tradin Paint & Larry Mac's tech show don't always start at the scheduled time and I miss the beginning or end.<BR/><BR/>My Sunday's usually start with watching those two shows, which gets me behind enough to skip commercials thru Race Day and then the actual race. If not, I'll watch my cooking shows until I've wasted enough time to be able to fast forward thru the race. Although me fast forwarding thru the race didn't start until well into last season. ;-)<BR/><BR/>Shawnna in OKCShawnnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17362724297597797638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-31085128215159848852008-01-22T10:02:00.000-05:002008-01-22T10:02:00.000-05:00If having Kyle Petty on Tradin' Paint makes the sh...If having Kyle Petty on Tradin' Paint makes the show a success, that's great.

Despite everyone's love for grown adults slinging middle school insults at each other, I for one don't think it helps racing, or television. If they want to act civil, that is one thing, but what you have now is a driver (Kyle Petty), who cannot find the appropriate words to convey a point so he degenerates the conversation into a tirade that solves nothing. It has at times dropped almost to the level of a NASCAR themed Jerry Springer show.<BR/><BR/>I know everyone loves Kyle Petty. I know he has a wonderful camp for disabled kids, and I know he has sacrificed more than almost anyone for the sport. That certainly gives him the right to criticize anyone he chooses in racing and the media. However, that doesn't mean we have to videotape and broadcast his tirades every week.Ritchiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09884549705336979557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-45575085599566919702008-01-22T07:30:00.000-05:002008-01-22T07:30:00.000-05:00I hope the show's EP tells Kyle to tone down his A...I hope the show's EP tells Kyle to tone down his Angry Race Driver persona.<BR/><BR/>It's one thing to have a spirited debate, but what's been doing has been rude and boorish.

I figure that's because the show is taped each week before Sunday's race and airing it Monday nights we'd know how accurate their "looks into the crystal ball" were.
