Completely heartbroken to hear the news of Kyleโs passing.
I have so many memories of great battles with him throughout my career that Iโll cherish forever. Itโs hard to even put into words what he meant to me and my career, whether he knew it or not. He was the bar we all measured ourselves against. Just a pure racer to the core. As real as they come.
I hate this so much for their family, Samantha, Lennix, and especially Brexton. The bond Kyle and Brexton shared, and everything he poured into his racing and his family, was incredible.
RIP KFB ๐

NASCAR fans: "Omg main character syndrome, what a loser"
Don't ever take anything for granted. It all can be gone so fast. Itโs a sad day in the racing community. Scott Bloomquist was an icon. He did what he wanted, said what he wanted, and won races. I'll forever cherish this moment with Mr. Black Sunshine. Rest easy, Outlaw. โ ๏ธ๐๐
Good afternoon @RobsSportsShow. Heres a glimpse into our budget. This is car owner @Paul_Silva57 dumpster diving for parts to save a tiny bit of money. And oh btw we won on another teams used tires the last 3 races. ๐ซ
What I thought could be one of the best days of my life quickly turned into one of the most disappointing ones Iโve ever experienced. I hate it for Rick Hendrick, Jeff Gordon, HAG, Hendrick Motorsports, everyone a part of the 5 team, everyone on the 17 indycar for speeding, my family, my friends, my fans, and the documentary crew that has followed along the journey the past 8 months. So much time, money, and effort went into this experience and it just kills me to have it all end the way it did. I feel like I let so many people down. We knew all along weather could throw a wrench into things but seeing it come to reality is a horrible feeling.
Up until Sunday it was truly one of the greatest experiences of my life. I canโt describe how appreciative I am of everyoneโs support of me to live out a dream. I hope itโs not the last opportunity I have to try the Double but if it is I guess it was memorable.
Thank you to everyone at Arrow McLaren, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, and all the competitors there for making me feel welcomed.
Ready to get back on track now and get refocused on winning a 2nd championship for our team.
