I am sooo tired of the plastic cookie-cutter drivers in NASCAR these days; thank goodness there are still a few like Kyle Bush. Spoiled kid? Do some research before making such statements. |

I think he should've channelled Hendrix, had his crew douse it with some 104 octane, and lit it on fire. |

Anita I'm with you Anita, a very disgusting neanderthal act, an embarassment to the male gender, and it bothered me to watch it as well! |

If it had been on Ovation he would now have a black eye and damaged teeth after it rebounded and hit him in the face!!

Location: south east Michigan | Here's a guy at the top of his profession, in his moment of glory, and all he wants to do is play rock star.
Did you read the article?? The guy who put all the time and effort into the special paint job was not very happy.
There are only two people in the world that can smash a guitar and not look like a doofus. Townshend is one. I don't have a clue who the other is but he must be out there somewhere. |

Someday he will wish he had not done that. |

Location: Sydney, Australia | Pete Townshend's first smashed guitar was an accident. He jumped high and broke the head off on a low ceiling. To entertain the crowd he smashed it up. Problem was, the crowds started to demand this behaviour and it cost them a lot of money. I suspect Keith Moon enjoyed the violence though. |

Who cares? anyone who appreciates what goes into making a guitar. He could sold it for a charity, donated it to a deserving organisation... |

He is a true @$$h01e. Many people would love a Gibson LP. (including myself)
Auction it off for charity, do something worth while, but to smash one so you can give away splinters? Unforgiveable. |
