Although Kyle Busch is still racing, his six-year-old son Brexton Busch is following in his footsteps.

For the uninitiated, the Beginner Box Stock series takes place at a few different 1/6-mile dirt tracks. Normally, the competitors are in the age range of five to eight. However, these cars are just a stepping stone into the bigger world of motor racing. In fact, these cars all have sponsors. Kyle Busch helped his son a little when he secured ServPro and Far Out Toys as co-sponsors for Brexton’s No. 18B car.

Admittedly, Brexton Busch has had a few critics, but Kyle is always quick to shut them down.
