It’s great news for Kyle Busch‘s brother to find such a major sponsor for the upcoming race at Kansas. And, that too running a livery that represents such an iconic figure. However, the fans were just not having it, as it is clear from the fairly negative reactions.
In fact, many responses were targeted toward NASCAR‘s decision to move the car number away from the door. Although, the change to allow more space for sponsors. Yet, the fans are quite dissatisfied as there is no other sponsor label on the door.
NASCAR Fans Aren’t Happy With The New Air Jordan Livery On Kurt Busch’s Car
NASCAR fans are simply not fond of the new livery for Kurt Busch‘s car. Many went as far as to say that it’s “Hideous” as one Twitter user stated.
This is SO hideous… I'm sorry but it's one of the worst looking scheme's I've ever seen

And others just found it outright disgusting.

And, of course, the hate towards NASCAR’s decision to move the car numbers away.
“Moving the number will allow more sponsor space to be sold”
— J Wall (@J_Wall_3) May 12, 2022
In fact, one fan drew a comparison to the 24 Hours of Daytona cars, as they said “It’s looks like shit dude looks nothing like a nascar between the rims and the number placement these cars look like they are racing in 24 hours of Daytona”.

However, it wasn’t all bad! Some fans really liked it, too. Possibly, fans of Michael Jordan, or snakeheads. Maybe, just NASCAR fans who liked the livery.

YES! I was hoping for a Jordan branded vehicle at some point. This is fucking awesome. If it’s a diecast you bet I’m pre ordering it.
