“Kyle is extremely toxic…Chase is a spoiled little rich kid”- NASCAR Twitter chooses among Kyle Busch and Chase Elliott

Chase Elliott and Kyle Busch (NASCAR Nation )

Kyle Busch and Chase Elliott are one of the modern-day greats of NASCAR. The veteran is arguably the most accomplished stock car racer in terms of victory lane visits. He has secured over 50 race wins in all three national series and is twice cup champion. On the other hand, Elliott is an upcoming superstar who has already tasted the cup championship glory.

The 2022 season was significant for both drivers. Busch was in his final year with JGR and was forced to exit the TRD garage to join Richard Childress Racing. He had a below-par season with the No:18 team considering the standard he set for himself. Busch was lucky to secure a win in Bristol. It was his only win of 2022.

On the other hand, Chase Elliott was on a redemption run in 2022 after a disappointing 2021 title-defending season. He was the most consistent driver of the series this year and scored five victories, the most by any driver this year. The No:9 Hendrick Motorsports driver finished at P4 in the championship table after a drop in form towards the end of the season.

When the variables 2022 season are compared, the youngster has the edge over Busch since he was more consistent throughout. The official Twitter handle of NBC’s NASCAR coverage asked the fans whom they would choose to be part of the cup team if they could select one of them. They had some serious and crazy responses.

As expected, fans had a mixed reaction regarding whom to choose. They either have to go for experience or youthful enthusiasm. Some fans had Kyle Busch as their pick and pointed out that the expertise and abilities of Busch will bring in more success. Some sided with Elliott as they found him a more consistent performer and someone who could secure more race wins.

I’ll take the driver who’s the youngest to win the championship AND made it to 3 straight championship races AND who can actually win when it matters

Give me Kyle Busch with a Chip on his shoulder the size of Mount Everest. I’d pick him over the whole field in this particular moment.

Oh hands down Kyle! Reason #1 – he gave my kid an autograph at the airport in the Bahamas back in 2010 when he didn’t have to. #2 he had to fix and setup his own shit. He didn’t arrive and drive. It wasn’t always the best equipment. He’s earned his success. He will help RCR!

I can't believe I'm saying this. But @KyleBusch. Man can drive and race anything. Understands teams. Understands what he needs to go faster. Can find troubled areas. His truck team has been the dominant team since KHI left. He's a major asset.
Chace is just a face.

Kyle can wheel anything. He’s proved it. Chase is a great driver, but we’ve never seen him wheel anything that’s underperformed. He’s always had the best equipment given to him
— Trev (@Trevorplummer) December 26, 2022

Chase is on a far better team with more teammates and resources.
This is a bad attempt to create a rivalry when none exists or will exist. Chase is on a team at the top of its game, Kyle is on a team that has been on the downslide for the past several years.

Chase is a spoiled little rich kid that can race whatever daddy buys for him like most younger NASCAR drivers today and Rowdy is a driver that has raced anything he has earned and given the opportunity to race which makes my choice Rowdy.
