And I use ruthless in the best way possible. If you took an inch, he was going to take two. And there was an amount of respect on the track that you just showed him, as a result. At the same time, [he] would race you so hard and so clean, and just an incredible competitor.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rcrracing.com\/no-8-cup-series-page\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">According to Richard Childress Racing<\/a>, Busch had 63 wins in the NASCAR Cup Series and held an all-time NASCAR record with 19 consecutive seasons with a victory from 2004 to 2023.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Throughout a career that spanned more than two decades, Kyle set records in national series wins, won championships at NASCAR&#8217;s highest level and fostered the next generation of drivers as an owner in the Truck Series,&#8221; the statement said. &#8220;His sharp wit and competitive spirit sparked a deep emotional connection with race fans of every age, creating the proud and loyal &#8216;Rowdy Nation.'&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>His death came 11 days after Busch radioed into his crew near the end of a Cup Series race at Watkins Glen asking a doctor to give him a &#8220;shot&#8221; after he finished the race. According to the TV broadcast, Busch had been struggling with a sinus cold that was exacerbated by the intense G-forces and elevation changes at the New York road course.<\/p>\n<p>Busch finished the
