    RIP Kyle Busch

    Loved him or hated him, cannot deny that Kyle Busch was a hell of a wheel man. So sad to hear of his passing at such a young and unexpected age.Prayers to his family. Glad I got to watch him win the Prelude in 2012 in a Bloomer car.

    Also will always remember his LCQ race at Bristol in one of Davenport's cars. He had the fans on their feet screaming and a hollering driving from the rear to make the feature and almost winning the darn thing!

    Never liked him in his younger years but grew to know him better and respected the accomplishments and the awesome driver he was. This is a great loss once again to the NASCAR community. My thoughts and the prayers go out to his family and loved ones!

      Shocked and saddened by his loss and really feel for his wife and young children. 41 is just way too young.

      I worked for Big N during the time when Kyle first came into national racing and remember all the buzz surrounding him. He was a real driving talent and when he was "finally" old enough to be allowed in one of the national series it didn't take him too long to score in the truck series. I always appreciated his skills as a wheel man and really liked that he had just a real love for racing as often as he could. Keeping a short track program for pavement super late models (2011 Slinger Nationals champ, 2009, 2017 Snowball Derby winner) and making his appearances in dirt late models when he could and wanting to be in equipment he could actually be in a position to win with. A lot of NASCAR drivers would go make driving "appearances" but a mere appearance was never good enough for Kyle. He possessed a driving talent that doesn't come around to everyone all that often and he was really driven to win.
      Political correctness,...is the inability to speak the truth about the obvious.

            He couldn't breathe for weeks. Likely pneumonia.
