Is Kyle Busch retiring from NASCAR?
No, Kyle Busch is not retiring from NASCAR.
Amid a wave of NASCAR retirements, Kyle Busch is making it clear that he’s not stepping away from the sport. Despite turning 38 on May 2, the two-time NASCAR Cup champion has no plans to retire soon.
Busch’s retirement plans are closely tied to his family, especially his 8-year-old son, Brexton, who has already begun making a name for himself in racing. Busch wants to support Brexton’s career as he grows older and develops his skills.
Busch envisions a future where he steps away from full-time NASCAR Cup racing around the time Brexton reaches his teenage years. In a recent interview on SiriusXM’s Cars and Cultures, Busch revealed that his ideal scenario would see him retire from the Cup series by the time Brexton is 15, which would be in approximately seven years. This would make Busch 45 at the time, allowing him to focus more on supporting his son’s racing career. (via Auto Week)
Since making his NASCAR debut as a teenager in 2001, Busch has built an impressive record. He holds the most wins across NASCAR’s three series and has two Cup championships. As he looks toward the next chapter of his career, Busch is also considering future goals beyond the Cup series. Notably, he has yet to secure a Truck series title. Despite this, he holds the record for the most wins in that series.
