Summary
Instagram post Wednesday detailed Samantha Busch’s bedside promise to Kyle Busch: she would help their children pursue their dreams, including 11-year-old Brexton’s goal of racing.
May 21 marked Kyle Busch’s death at 41 after pneumonia progressed to sepsis; the two-time NASCAR Cup champion had collapsed during a simulator session before the Coca-Cola 600 and died the next day.
Charlotte’s Summer Shootout brought Brexton back to the track this week, where he finished second as Samantha said racing remains where the family feels closest to Kyle.
762 Cup starts and 63 wins cemented Kyle Busch’s NASCAR legacy, while Richard Childress has already reserved the No. 8 for Brexton if he eventually reaches NASCAR.
