Kyle Busch, RIP

RC’s measure of holding the 8 for Brexton is nice and all but JGR should sell the 18 to the Busch family. Ty didn’t want it and that number is tied to Kyle’s legacy. If Brexton wants the 18, it should be his, especially since he already uses it.

Give the 8 back to the Earnhardts and right the wrong of Teresa’s treatment of Dale Jr when he left DEI.

Yeah, I tend to agree. I was a Bobby Labonte fan and he drove the 18 for 11 years with Interstate Batteries. I loved that car.
I'm sure Bobby would agree to give it to the Busch family.

I did wonder which number Brexton would prefer. Kyle accomplished far more running in the #18, including both his titles. I expect once the initial shock has eased, his stint in the #8 will be overshadowed.

I honestly was thinking the same this morning as I woke up. Like Naitch said, 18 is what he's already using, and I could see that being what he wants to use if he wants to keep racing. Would be wonderful of Joe Gibbs to give them the number to use.

And still remember Ned Jarrett calling the ‘93 Daytona 500 with his son Dale winning in the Interstate Batteries 18.
Fun fact but out of the 100 or so drivers ever to have driven the 18 only 3 have won. All from JGR.
Dale Jarrett, Bobby Labonte and of course Kyle Busch.
