NASCAR driver Ricky Stenhouse Jr. going all Mike Tyson on Kyle Busch at the All-Star Race just set him back financially — he was just fined $75K for his involvement in this past weekend’s wild brawl.
The racing organization handed down the punishment on Wednesday … saying not only will RSJ have to write out a hefty check, but his dad was suspended indefinitely for his role in the scrap as well.

As we previously reported, the two drivers confronted each other after Sunday’s event … with Stenhouse pissed after Busch seemingly caused him to wreck on purpose at the beginning of the race.
During their altercation, Stenhouse clocked Busch with a vicious punch … and both teams quickly got involved.

Two Stenhouse crew members were hit with bans … as Clint Myrick got an eight-race suspension, and Keith Matthews was handed four races as a result of the fight.
But there’s an opportunity for RSJ to make the money back — as TMZ Sports previously reported, the two drivers got an offer to take their beef to the ring via Celebrity Boxing … with Damon Feldman willing to give them a solid payday.
