What I was more impressed about with Brexton was his interview after the race… We know that the Busch brothers have always been very intense with their interviews. But it appears that mama Samantha Busch has got a hold of Brexton. What a pleasant happy young man… I really think that Brexton drives like his father but acts like his mama.

I really think these parents are doing a wonderful job raising their kids at the racetrack. They’re allowing them to get out of the race car, be kids, hang out with your friends, but yet all the while teaching them geometry.

Kenny Wallace said.

The comment from the ex-racer shows he respects the way Kyle Busch is leading Brexton to succeed in racing. It would be interesting to see how long it would take for the youngster to make it into the big leagues and secure a seat in one of the national racing series.
