CONCORD, N.C.Brad Keselowski and Kyle Busch talked Monday about the on-track incident that knocked Busch out of Friday night’s Nationwide Series race at Darlington Raceway.

Keselowski didn’t elaborate on the nature of that conversation - which came after Busch called the wreck a "product of racing idiots" – when asked before the start of Nationwide Series testing at Lowe’s Motor Speedway.

“It ain’t no big deal,” said Keselowski, who is in his first full season with JR Motorsports. “Racing, you’re going have emotions. If you didn’t have emotions it wouldn’t be popular. I’m not really worried about it. I’m just more focused on those next few races coming up that I feel like we can run up front and win.”

The contact sent Busch’s Braun Racing Toyota hard into the wall, ending his night on lap 101 of the 149-lap race. He finished 31st. Keselowski, who went on to finish 15th, drew the ire of Busch for racing with the leaders while running a lap down.

Keselowski said Monday that he has viewed videotape of the accident but didn’t offer insight into who he deems to be at fault.

“I’ve looked at it but it's done now,” Keselowski said. “I ain’t really worried about it. I can’t get that night back.”
