The saga of Kyle Bush.

I’m sitting here remembering a video viewed years ago, which gave my Kyle angst serious pause. It was made while he, Samantha and Brexton were shopping somewhere. Bret was a little guy then, and Kyle placed him into a large display of play balls, which he sank into. It was fun seeing them having such fun, just a dad and his kid.

Kyle and Samantha grew as a couple, as a family, and in their faith. Rowdy never lost his competitor’s sharp edge, but he evolved as a man. I was always touched how Samantha would gather him and their kids together for prayer just before Kyle entered his race car. His dedicated involvement with his son’s emerging racing career, the planning they were doing on his timeline, demonstrated Kyle’s deep love for him.

The family will need and receive a lot of help and support from their friends, church and racing community. They will need it. Everyone please say a prayer tonight for them. The first night without your spouse/father/brother/child is among the hardest. Been there done that. Blessings to them all for comfort and peace during this tragic time.

Amen.
 
No words just a lot of emotions running thru my veins right now, I just don't understand this world anymore, who stays who goes, got the text and thought it wasn't real because how could it be? Been on the verge of tears a handful of times, just sitting here staring off into space for the past couple hours smh hands on hips in the middle of the room.

This is a really tough loss to take right now, I'll see you in the sky someday my friend, you're part of the reason why I started watching nascar.

Extreme sadness extreme shock. My thoughts go out to the entire Busch family at this time.
 
Lee White introduced me to Kyle in 2011. One of the biggest moments of my life. Both of those guys treated me like I was the famous dude. Now, they are gone. I am numb. Doesn't make sense. Part of me doesn't care about this weekend....part of me cares even more. Just doesn't make sense.
 
I'm honestly still trying to wrap my mind around it tbh.

Honestly, one of my favorite things about Kyle in his prime, is that when my favorites could beat him in a race for the win. I knew I just saw them beat one of the best. He made my drivers have to step up their game. It's going to be so weird not seeing him out there ever again. First Ballot Hall of Famer through and through. R.I.P
 
NASCAR just lost a pillar of the industry. He was the measuring stick. To be the best, you had to beat Kyle Busch. Friday, Saturday, or Sunday. For 20 years that name was synonymous with success. Probably the greatest pure talent outside of Earnhardt that I’ve ever seen drive a race vehicle of any type. His fiery personality and antics and wheelman heroics defined a generation for this industry. A villain people loved to hate and boo, and a hero who only got more popular as he grew up.

Half the Cup garage came up through KBM in the Truck Series. Because he was so polarizing, Kyle didn’t get the credit he probably deserved for what he did for the sport and the things he did behind the scenes.

We lost a legend. This truly completely sucks.
