Bubba might have secured his future, but the driver for the #18 team at the Joe Gibbs Racing HQ might still be sitting with a frown on his face.

In fact, Kyle Busch has admitted that he’s prepared to take a pay cut.
“I don’t think money has ever been the objective or the issue,” Busch said. “Obviously, I know where the sport’s landscape is. I know what’s happening. And I’ve accepted (taking a smaller salary). And have told everybody that. I’m trying to see where all that lies.”
