“Y’all Are Pieces of S**t”: NASCAR Veteran Brutally Trashes Hailie Deegan’s Critics for Drawing Parallels With Kyle Busch’s Miserable Run

NASCAR racing can sometimes be cruel or unforgiving. It’s as if the drivers put themselves in the firing line every week while trying to churn out good results. Unfortunately, not everything goes according to plan, and there are disappointments for the teams and drivers along the way. Something both Kyle Busch and Hailie Deegan share in their ongoing 2024 NASCAR season.

Kyle Busch’s inability to perform or get a winning result is seen as Richard Childress Racing’s failure to provide the driver with a race-winning car. But, in Deegan’s case, the fans seem to question her talent and skill without knowing the reason behind her troubles in competing in her rookie Xfinity season. This contrast in opinion by the fans towards Hailie Deegan wasn’t appreciated by Kenny Wallace so much that he lashed out at the online trolls and viewers in a recent video via his YouTube channel.

Wallace suggests Hailie Deegan’s performance may be due to an underperforming team

In 2023, Deegan joined ThorSport Racing, which had won the 2021 championship with Ben Rhodes. In 2024, she signed with a team that helped Brett Moffitt achieve nine top-10s in 2023, offering her the best opportunity yet to prove herself. However, Deegan has struggled, currently sitting 28th in Xfinity Series points, the worst among full-time drivers. She trails behind Aric Almirola, Ryan Truex, and Kyle Weatherman, all of whom have at least five fewer starts this season.

Whereas for Kyle Busch, his performance decline has been evident since last year. So far this season, he hasn’t managed to win a single race, and his struggles are becoming increasingly apparent. Remarkably, out of his 20-season career, there have only been five seasons where he didn’t secure a win in the first 11 races, most of which occurred early in his career. Unfortunately, it looks like this year is shaping up to be one of those tough seasons for Busch.

The former NASCAR driver on Kenny Conversation interacts with prominent personalities and keeps the fans updated about his previous shows. Little did he know that promoting Hailie Deegan’s interview would result in an outburst of negative comments.

Fuming with the fans online, Kenny Wallace stated in a recent video, “While I’m waiting for dinner, I just get on my phone and I scroll through the comment section. You men, y’all are pieces of sh*t. Here’s a lady out there in a man’s world racing … Man, oh man, people are quick to point out that she’s not good. I’m like man, y’all are making yourself look bad; you’re sitting there on the couch.”

Wallace even questioned why Kyle Busch’s recent woes are credited to his RCR team, but as far as Deegan is concerned, she is a problem. “Who knows, maybe she’s in a junky car. Look at Kyle Busch right now. Imagine if Kyle Busch was in a car like he is right now his whole career … So there’s two cars that are struggling, so maybe just maybe Hailie Deegan, maybe she’s not in a very good car. But regardless, when people are struggling, the last thing you want to do is tell them they’re no good.”

Busch is staring at the possibility of not making it into the playoffs for the first time in the elimination era of NASCAR racing. Meanwhile, Deegan is still learning the tricks of the trade while competing in the Xfinity Series. As a matter of fact, it is Rowdy who is under immense pressure to deliver the result to save his and RCR’s sinking ship.

What’s next for Kyle Busch in 2024?

The 2024 Cup Series season has been a nightmare for Kyle Busch and the No. 8 RCR team. With only two top-5 and five top-10 finishes in 17 races, the driver finds himself in a tough spot to make the playoffs. He’s now gone 38 races without a win and could be missing out on scoring a win in a regular season for the first time since 2004. With only nine races left, the pressure is mounting on Busch, who will have to aim for a win in the next nine attempts.

There are hardly any positives for the #8 team to build on, apart from early runs in the season it has been a downhill ride for both the driver and the team. The only way Busch can win a race in the regular season is by posting up some consistent top 5 and top 10 runs. And who knows? He just might find that one big result he is looking for. Or he seriously needs to focus on collecting points, just like Martin Truex Jr, Ross Chastain, and Alex Bowman have been doing so far.

Well, if everything does go south for Rowdy this season, he might as well be planning an exit from RCR. He has a contract with the team until the end of 2025, and if nothing changes between now and the end of the season, we could start hearing rumors about his links to different teams.

In the tough 2024 NASCAR season, where Kyle Busch struggles with a winless streak Hailie Deegan faces criticism despite potential team issues. Veterans like Kenny Wallace will always come and defend them. However, this time Wallace has highlighted the disparity in fan reactions. And now both drivers now face mounting pressure to turn their seasons around.
