As NASCAR fans, we have often seen fathers and sons rule the sport in their respective prime. With Dale Earnhardt & Dale Earnhardt Jr, Bill Elliott & Chase Elliott, and Lee Petty & Richard Petty, the examples are plenty. However, we may soon see another pair of names on that list.

With the major strides he has been making in his junior racing career, it seems Brexton, Kyle Busch‘s son, is soon going to be the next big thing in NASCAR. While the RCR driver has already won 2 championships in the sport, his son, with his early success, doesn’t seem far off to emulate the same level of greatness.

Recently, fans witnessed yet another “like father, like son” moment with the Busch family as they saw ‘Rowdy’ accompanying Brexton ahead of his midget racing at Talladega Super Speedway, ahead of his own race at the same venue.

With time, Kyle Busch along with his wife, Samantha Busch, has amassed a massive fan following on social media. And now their son seems to be headed in the same direction as he had an exciting update for fans.

Taking it to his Instagram story, the youngster posted a picture of him with his father, captioned, “Like Father, Like Son.” Brexton is currently competing in the NASCAR Youth Quarter Midget National Event. Fans were in for a treat as they discovered their favorite driver’s son slowly yet steadily climbing the NASCAR ranks.

And with his parents backing up, Brexton is certain to be the next racer from the iconic Busch family. The Richard Childress Racing driver too posted on his Instagram about the duo going on the “Busch family double duty“.

Meanwhile, Samantha also shared her delight at seeing her beloved husband and son racing at the iconic track. She wrote, “One racing the small track and the other racing the big track 🏁 it’s a busy weekend out here at @talladega!” Seeing the post garnering thousands of likes and comments, it is safe to say that the fans are excited!

While junior Busch is looking to board the NASCAR bandwagon, the sport has had many iconic father-son duos in the past. Fans certainly cannot forget the 1988 Cup Series champion, Bill Elliott, and his son, Chase Elliott. With Chase building on his father’s legacy, the Hendrick Motorsports driver is a solid competitor in the NASCAR scene.

Yet another powerful duo is Dale Earnhardt Sr and Dale Earnhardt Jr. No true fan can forget Dale Sr’s iconic run in NASCAR, racking up win after win. Dale Jr arguably had a tough time living up to the fan’s expectations. But off the track, he has taken the Earnhardt empire to a whole different level.
