 Kyle Busch was already asked to undergo sensitivity training after using a derogatory slur to refer to Brad Keselowski. Now, he has lost his crew chief for the upcoming Clash at the Coliseum in February. The announcement came after the #18 team was hit with a penalty for not having all three lug nuts secured on their tires at the end of the race.  The penalty report provided by NASCAR officials claims that two lug nuts on one tire were loose, which is a safety violation.

NASCAR ultimately decided to fine Busch's Crew Chief, Ben Beshore, $20,000 and suspend him from the pit box for the upcoming race at the LA Memorial Coliseum. The track is being transformed from a football field into a quarter-mile short track that is sure to provide for an interesting experience.  Whether the Las Vegas native can mount a win at NASCAR's new Frankenstein Monster remains to be seen, but he will have to do it without his Crew chief.
