Is Kyle Busch the "real" Dale Earnhardt Jr.?

Dale Earnhardt Sr. earned his nickname "The Intimidator" because of his willingness run over other drivers that wouldn't get out of his way. Kyle Busch has used this same tactic the past few weeks. In Mexico City, radio transmissions indicated that Busch wanted Scott Pruett to "get the f..." out of his way. During a truck race in Martinsville, Busch wrecked a guy that was in front of him with less than five laps to go. Maybe I haven't watched enough races, but I've never seen Dale Earnhardt Jr. use the aggressive driving techniques that his dad and Kyle Busch have used.


I appreciate Kyle's determination to win every race, but sometimes he takes this too far. He's also somewhat of a hypocrite because he loses it every time some other driver hits him from behind.
