He said it was so bad that he probably coudln’t have raced if there was a race last weekend, but it improved enough to get behind the wheel this week with the wrist taped.

Apparently, he didn’t like the way it felt, because he started fiddling with it mid race during a caution, then made an unusual request to his pit crew.

He asked for scissors and picked up a pair during a pit stop He was then seen under yellow using the scissors with his right hand has he drove and cut the tape on his left hand, which had been removed from its glove.

It wasn’t immediately clear if Busch had violated any NASCAR safety rules, or what he did with the scissors when he was finished.

Busch is currently 18th in the Cup Series standings and desperately in need of a win to make the playoffs … cut.
