![Coca Cola 600 fight NASCAR]()
No, it wasn't Kyle Busch and Ricky Stenhouse Jr...this time.
Last weekend at North Wilkesboro Speedway it was two drivers and their teams going at it in the garage area after the
NASCAR All-Star Race, when Stenhouse
landed a right hook on Busch's jaw following a wreck on lap 2 of the race.

Stenhouse was ultimately
fined $75,000 for the extracurricular activities, and promised retaliation against Busch this weekend at Charlotte Motor Speedway during the Coca-Cola 600 (though he ultimately changed his tune after Busch's team owner
Richard Childress threatened to get involved).
So far the two have raced clean (though we've still got half of the race to go at this point). But that doesn't mean there hasn't been fists flying already during the NASCAR Cup Series race.
Video shows a group of fans in the infield going at it in the middle of the race, in what seems like a fight between two people that resulted in both sides jumping in to defend their guy.
At one point there was a woman who was throwing things at the guys fighting trying to break it up, and even kids running in there to help out?
Things seemed to get separated pretty quickly, though it one point it looked like one of the guys was ready to go back for more.
Gonna take a wild guess and say there was some alcohol involved in this one...and with the 600 being NASCAR's longest race, it may not be the only fight we see - on or off the track.
