For many years Kyle Busch wasn’t a fan favorite, on the contrary, he was perceived as the ultimate villain of the sport. But since his move from Joe Gibbs Racing to Richard Childress Racing in 2022, he became one of the fan favorites. The boos he often used to get are now received by his ex-teammate Denny Hamlin, who has taken up the villain mantle.

While the Chevy move was a big reason for the change in perception by the fans, the positive presentation of Busch as a family man via social media has also helped. His wife Samantha Busch, who is a professional model has a lot to play in as her social media game is the best among the NASCAR wags.

Recently after the Atlanta Cup race, which Busch lost with 0.007 seconds margin to Daniel Suarez, the RCR driver via social media shared his disappointment. In the caption, he was a little too creative as he wrote, “Needed a couple inches…” This provided Mrs. Busch with all the opportunity to take a savage dig.

Samantha Busch immediately wrote, “I’ve been telling you that for almost 20 years.” The response was a testament to the couple dynamic of Busch’s. Now the Chevy driver for the first time has publicly addressed the hilarious situation and said he left too much space for interpretation in his message so his wife took advantage of it.

I think I left the door wide open for those sorts of comments with how I scripted my text underneath my post, so she played that well.

Busch said, as reported by TMZ Sports.

Kyle Busch became a tourist in his own city

The Las Vegas Cup race is the home race for Busch who grew up and started racing in Nevada. But being a busy athlete he often has some new developments and places in his hometown and on his 2024 trip, he used the opportunity to explore some places he hadn’t been before with his family, including the infamous mega-structure, The Sphere.

Never thought I’d be a tourist in my hometown, but the Sphere lived up to the hype. Had fun showing the fam around.
He wrote on X.

This week, Busch is determined to end his poor run at his home track as he hasn’t won a race at the track since 2009. If he could do so it would be a delight for the home fans. He didn’t have the best qualifying as he dropped to P21 but will be hoping to get back on Sunday with an impressive win.
