Unless you've been living in a vacuum, you've by now seen the "Kick Heard 'Round the World."

That would be Nelson Piquet, Jr.'s kick to fellow Nationwide driver Brian Scott's groin following Friday night's race at Richmond - the kick that led to the later attack of Piquet, Jr. in the Richmond motorhome lot by two RCR crewmen who were arrested and taken to Henrico County, Va. jail.

Turns out the apple doesn't fall far from the tree and young Piquet, Jr. was only demonstrating the kick his father, Nelson Piquet, Senior, attempted to perfect 31 years ago in the F-1 Grand Prix at Hockenheim, Germany.

They say the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Like father / like son.

Here's the video of the 1982 kick:
