NASCAR Driver’s Attempt To Break Rival’s “Fuck*ng Nose” Ends in a Chokehold As Kaulig Racing President Steps in the Middle of His Current & Former Driver

In the world of NASCAR, heated rivalries and intense on-track battles are not uncommon. However, there are moments when the line between competition and controversy becomes blurred, and the sport’s reputation takes a hit.

Such was the case in the recent altercation between current Kaulig Racing team driver Chandler Smith and ex-Kaulig Racing driver Jeb Burton. Following an on-track incident during the Xfinity Race, emotions ran high, leading to a physical confrontation that left fans disappointed and questioning the integrity of the sport.

The intense on-track incident sparks a post-race brawl between Kaulig Racing associates

The incident that sparked the controversy occurred during the Pacific Office Automation 147 at Portland International Raceway. With less than 10 laps to go, Jeb Burton was in a promising position, battling inside the top-15. However, Chandler Smith, driving for Kaulig Racing, made a move that wiped Burton out. Thus, ending his chances of a strong finish.

Understandably frustrated, Burton expressed his anger over the team’s radio. He made it clear that he was not pleased with Smith’s actions. He said, “He tried to wreck me into 1, wrecked me into 3 so he’s gonna get a broken f**king nose after this.”

After the race concluded, Jeb Burton sought out Chandler Smith to address the incident personally. In a post-race interview with FrontStretch, Burton admitted, “I let my fists do the talking.” A physical altercation ensued between the two drivers, with Burton getting a few shots in before being intercepted by Smith’s Kaulig Racing pit crew. One of the crew members placed Burton in a headlock, temporarily diffusing the situation. However, tensions escalated once again when Burton engaged in a heated discussion with Kaulig Racing’s Chris Rice.

The recent altercation between Burton and Smith is not an isolated incident but rather the latest chapter in an ongoing feud between the two drivers. Previously, in the Ag-Pro 300 NASCAR Xfinity race at Talladega Superspeedway, Burton emerged victorious while Smith voiced his frustrations about Burton’s racing style. In an interview, Smith remarked, “He’s not the sharpest tool in the shed.”

In response, Burton didn’t hold back, publicly criticizing Smith’s racing skills. He stated, “He raced like a complete idiot last week, and he raced like an idiot today.” Burton expressed concern over Smith’s decision-making on the track, emphasizing the need for strategic thinking. The rivalry intensified as Smith’s disappointing outing at Talladega ended with a multi-car wreck, ultimately resulting in a 25th-place finish.
