New Hampshire Fans Remember NASCAR Driver Kyle Busch as Racing Legend

NASCAR said Busch won more than 60 Cup races and 69 Truck Series races, and his 2015 and 2019 titles defined a two-decade career.

  • NASCAR legend Kyle Busch died Thursday at age 41 following a severe illness, sending shockwaves through the racing community just days before the Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway.
  • The two-time NASCAR Cup Series champion accumulated 63 wins over his 26-year career, earning the nickname 'Rowdy' for his fierce, polarizing driving style that defined an entire era of the sport.
  • On May 15, Busch celebrated his final victory at Dover Motor Speedway, posing in Victory Lane and telling fans, "You take whatever you can get, man. You never know when the last one is going to be."
  • Four-Time Cup Series champion Jeff Gordon called the death "a devastating loss," saying Busch was "a fierce competitor who demanded the very best from himself each time he put on the helmet."
  • Beyond racing, Busch and wife Samantha Busch founded the Bundle of Joy Fund, which has raised more than $2 million to advance IVF access and support families navigating infertility challenges.
