Ever since he arrived as a 19-year-old phenom driving in NASCAR’s Xfinity Series, Kyle Busch has been difficult to keep up with on the track or in the record books.
Busch surpassed 60 wins April 17 at Bristol, 18 days shy of his 37th birthday and faster than all but the three winningest drivers in Cup Series history — Richard Petty (200 victories), David Pearson (105) and Jeff Gordon (93).
True to Busch’s nature, it was not fast enough.
