5 years, 5 Regionals, Super, Omaha, averaged over 42 wins in his time…switched positions, battled injuries….didn’t matter, kept going…led by example…
Better human…it’s the PEOPLE. The definition of a DEAC!
I remember people that hated Kyle Busch messaging me saying this video made them start to actually like Kyle Busch.
It’s definitely my favorite video I’ve ever posted. RIP Kyle Busch.
We join the rest of the sports world in mourning the tragic passing of NASCAR legend Kyle Busch.
In 2025, Kyle threw out the first pitch at MLB’s Speedway Classic at Bristol Motor Speedway.
Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and loved ones.
Kyle and I had a really challenging existence for many years. But we luckily took the time to figure out our differences and that was something he instigated with a conversation in his bus around how we each managed our racing teams. I was super eager for us to get on better terms. But it was he who made the effort for that to be possible. We did some media together also to laugh through some of the things we put each other through many years ago. Most recently we had even been discussing him running my Late Model at Wilkesboro this summer. He seemed extremely happy and we had planned to meet up next Thursday to get his seat to the shop. He laughed over the idea of his fans and JRM fans having to cheer in unison during that race.
Kyle was one of the greatest drivers in NASCAR history. No one can deny that. But he was also a father, a husband, brother, son, and a friend to many. My heart is broken for the Busch family. I will never be able to make sense of this loss but I am thankful that we had found a way to become friends.
