The NASCAR stage has always been indulged in the debate of who is the G.O.A.T(Greatest Of All Time). However, the stance over the years has changed and some has even included the modern pioneers of the sport like Kyle Busch in the list alongside Dale Earnhardt. Recently Busch had given his verdict on the potential result if he and Earnhardt raced in their prime.

Over the years, various drivers like Earnhardt, Jimmie Johnson and Richard Petty have been included in the discussion of who is the GOAT. However, with time, the scope expanded and included drivers from various eras. This raised the question of who would come out on top if prime Earnhardt and Busch had been on the same tarmac.

The RCR driver was convinced that neither driver would have made it to the finish line. Subsequently, this statement suggests that both drivers would have been involved in an incident. Moreover, this claim can be deciphered to their aggressive racing style and how their careers are full of incidents.

Moreover, the pit crew for Busch has changed multiple times over the weekends due to multiple botched stops by the team. However, one such instance was recorded at Phoenix in his home race when he missed his marks and failed to stop in time.

Frustrating day to have the disaster that we did on pit road, of just being really slow and then for me to slide through to kind of add insult to injury on my behalf, we otherwise might have been a top-10 finisher.
Kyle Busch told NASCAR.

The 38-year-old had pitted outside his box and received a penalty which ruined his race in the Sin City. Although this time it was not the fault of his pit crew, Busch felt frustrated due to the incident Subsequently, his pit crew was changed yet again for the race in Phoenix. However, the race was not any better for Busch as he finished a lonely 22nd in the race.
