Rusty's Getting Rusty"The thing he doesn't understand is, when he was winning all those races, there weren't 43 cars that could win. There were, like, five."Elliott Less Than Awesome-Steve Wallace, on father Rusty's expectations for him in the Busch Series [Valvoline Track Talk Newsletter, h/t MotorsportsNews.Net (work)
Riverside Speedway in Antigonish, Nova Scotia, is not feeling the awesomeness from Bill Elliott after he canceled a track appearance he made before committing to drive the #21 car:
"We don't want this type of driver...representing our facility, our sponsors or our race fans. If we had any idea Elliott was that kind of person, we would never have approached him, but instead chosen a Cup driver that understands a deal and the seriousness of his actions.""I Wasn't Driving, Officer"

Ingredients:
Kyle Busch
Kyle Busch's boat
Greg Biffle's registration
One unidentified front tire changer
One unidentified girlfriend
Vats of alcohol
Mix all ingredients, nearly collide with a lake patrol officer, realize you're screwed, perform Chinese fire drill, wait for charges to be passed out ... wait awhile ... then find out that Busch wasn't actually on the boat that actually isn't his.

While I don't generally like Steven Wallace (he may have potential, but he was handed that ride way too early because he's the male Wallace that clamored hardest for it), oddly enough I agree with him on that comment. They say that great athletes make poor coaches - it's because they came from different eras and extreme talent doesn't always understand how to coach someone who potential talent that hasn't been realized yet. Rusty wants Steven to be successful NOW, which is funny considering he understands that other drivers have to work at it. (I think Jon Wood is in somewhat the same boat as Steven, but with a different personality. Steven doesn't care what his parents say as much. Jon does.)
