Some people talk the talk and very few walk the walk. Kyle Busch demonstrated that he can do both. In his hometown of Las Vegas, Nevada, he took the victory and won the Shelby 427, part of the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series.
His victory went to the record books. He is the first pole-winner to reach the finish line in a Cup race at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway. After having an engine change, he was forced to start at the 39th position, but that didn’t stop him from taking the victory.
This is a tremendous comeback for Busch, after his incident in the Daytona 500, where he finished 41st after being mixed up in another driver’s crash. He was dominating the race, but his momentum was taken away in a matter of seconds.
You wouldn’t think this 23-year-old would get the job done. But, after 228 laps, he showed the world his driving abilities and patience to place first.
Other racers that had some problems as well. Jeff Gordon blew one of his tires when he failed to get into the pit, but he was able to finish at sixth. Jimmie Johnson drove through his pit box and was behind a lap. At the end he finished at the 24th spot. Another one who had problems was Carl Edwards, due to his pit crew’s mistake of not placing a lug nut in its correct position. He finished 17th.
What he have a here is a demonstration of class and sportsmanship. No tonly the experienced ones can win championships. Guys like KyleBusch show the love for the sport. This is someone you should definitely keep in mind for the next time you place your NASCAR bets. He might have lost the Daytona 500, due to a bad moment, but the next time that event comes around, don’t hesitate to place your racingbets on this guy.
