[RFK-PensekeFan]

This can't be real...

My heartfelt condolences go out to the entire Busch family.

I saw the RIP Kyle Busch in the random NASCAR stuff thread and thought it was some kind of morbid joke.

I'm in complete disbelief right now. This is so sad and shocking.

RIP Rowdy, thank you for everything.
Thoughts are with his family

 

[TexasRaceLady]

This just a shock. Having a hard time wrapping my head around this terrible, awful news.
He will be missed.

 

[Blaze]

****** devastating news. RIP

 

[Thegeneral23]

wtf guys?!!!

 

[Brentford]

Unbelievable! The guy was just racing less than a week ago! It honestly doesn’t seem real. Thinking about his family and the NASCAR world right now.

 

[nascarwoman]

My thoughts are with the whole family and his teams. He may not have been my favorite driver, but I admired his talent and ability.
He will be missed.

This can't be real. Like, what the actual ****

 

[Mr. Gregory]

I'm just completely numb right now. I can't believe what I'm reading.

 

[Kiante]

This life **** is unfair.

Kyle was supposed to be that statesman for the sport long-term.

I'm ****** hurting.

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

This was just last weekend. He looks fit as can be.

Just unreal.

 

[Mr. Gregory]

He was my age. I had heard that he was hospitalized with a "serious illness" earlier today and wouldn't be at Charlotte but really didn't think much of it. This is just an incredibly, unbelievably tragic reminder that tomorrow isn't promised to any of us.

Rest easy, Kyle.

Simply shocking. The NASCAR community has just had such an awful run of tragedy lately. I feel terrible for Samantha and the kids.

RIP

 

[FLRacingFan]

I didn’t even think to mention Richard himself - the second time he’s lost one of his own so suddenly. Poor guy. I just can’t even imagine the feelings.

 

[Blaze]

 

[Go Panthers]

This is heartbreaking. Those poor kids

R.I.P. Kyle Busch. You will be deeply missed.

One of the many people on my mind tonight is Richard Childress The man has had two of the best two ever do it pass away while actively driving for him

 

[lisa]

Hi everyone. I'm here. I had to come here.

 

[Brentford]

Winning championships everywhere he went!

 

[aunty dive]

 

[Tumbleweed]

Rest Easy Shrub. You made a helluva mark in the sport.

 

[Go Panthers]

these are my boys. This picture popped up on my Facebook memories yesterday, of all days, from 10 years ago. I grew up an Earnhardt fan, I did not like KB for a long time, then my son came along, he loved the M&M’s car, and became a KB fan, so did I.
My wife an I struggled having him, we had to see a fertility doctor, the more I learned about how Kyle and Samatha helped those that were also struggling, the more respect i gained for him.

Kyle Busch is going to be missed by a lot of people. The sport lost a true giant yesterday.

 

[thereddestbarron]

Still doesn't feel real. Watched the truck race last Friday and didn't think anything of him winning. By far one of the most talented Nascar drivers over the past 20 years. Glad I got to watch his whole Cup career, just wish I would have appreciated his talent more than I did. Prayers for Samantha and the kids. Rest easy Bud.

Had me in tears.

Excellent tribute by Mike Joy.

I've thought about Samantha most of today. She's just lost her best friend and she's got to attempt to hold it together for those children.

This happens everyday, to lose spouses but.....she's really in my thoughts.

I’m not going to lie. I’m struggling with this.
I think NASCAR drivers have a different relationship with their fans than do other athletes. Football, baseball, basketball fans support a team, NASCAR fans support a driver. If you attend races, you listen to your driver on the scanner for hours at a time, you see their personality, their emotions…it’s a different athlete/fan relationship than you would have with a stick and ball athlete. NASCAR fans feel connected.
I can’t even process this right now. How does an athlete with access to the best medical care develop sepsis from pneumonia? I’m not even looking to blame anyone, I’m just trying to understand this loss of life.
I’m sad, man. I’m not interested in watching any races for now and I don’t know when I’ll be ready.
Davey was my driver after Pearson retired. I don’t want to go through the emotional process of watching post race tributes.
This sucks and I wish I was doing something else besides being sad.
Godspeed, Champ.
