Kyle Busch says payback is coming to Corey LaJoie

Kyle Busch didn’t mince words when he joined ESPN’s Pat McAfee Show Friday afternoon, especially when it came to last Sunday’s incident with Corey LaJoie at Pocono Raceway.

“He (LaJoie) texted me and, and then he called me,” Busch said to McAfee. “I didn’t even reach back out because he changed his story four times, so I’m like, you’re just a liar. You wrecked me. Like, I get it. It’s fine, whatever. Payback’s coming.”

LaJoie, who said following Sunday’s race he “was not gonna say sorry” about the wreck, discussed the incident further on his recent podcast episode of Stacking Pennies.

“As I tried to replay it back, and I wish I had done my interview with replays before I said anything because I didn’t know, I probably am more remorseful, is the right word, but I do feel bad even for Kyle,” LaJoie said during the podcast. “I don’t want to end his day. Randall Burnett (No. 8 crew chief), we’re buddies, I don’t want to wreck anybody’s day.”
