Following in his father’s footsteps, Brexton Busch is slowly but surely making a name for himself in the motorsports scene. The 8-year-old seems to have inherited Kyle Busch’s driving prowess as he is one of the most popular racers in his age group. However, father and son were faced with a unique problem at the Millbridge Speedway recently and Kyle couldn’t help but ask racing fans for advice.

Over the years, Kyle Busch has won several championships. His son is on course to win a title as well at the moment. In the Beginner Box Stock competition, the 8-year-old is the leader of the table with 1711 points, 151 ahead of second-placed Gabe Yacono.

Since there is no Millbridge Racing action for the 8-year-old, Kyle Busch took to Instagram to ask for fans’ opinions about racing events taking place in the winter that he and his son could attend. He shared a picture of himself with his son, who was all geared up in his racing suit, and it didn’t take long for fans to chime in with their opinions.

“Not sure what to do with ourselves tonight with no Millbridge racing. Drop in the comments races that are happening this winter, maybe we can go! You know we’re going to go stir crazy,” Rowdy wrote as a caption to the picture.

Brexton Busch has taken part in 18 feature races organized by the Millbridge Speedway and he has won 7 of them. Perhaps the most impressive achievement amidst it all by Brexton Busch is the fact that he finished every single one of those 18 races in the top 10.

For someone as prolific a racer as Brexton, it can be a bit disappointing to not race for a week. The 8-year-old’s races are usually held on Tuesday, but that was not the case this week. So, thanks to his dad, racing fans decided to help out the Buschs to visit some other racing events happening in the winter.

Racing fans come together to help out Kyle Busch

One fan suggested that there was a racing event at Millbridge this coming Saturday, so perhaps it would be better for father and son to stay put. “Millbridge this Saturday,” they commented.

Another user suggested that the two could visit St Louis, presumably to catch some local racing action. “why not head to the races at St Louis,” they wrote.

Some fans were a lot more specific with their suggestions and sometimes there were more than one. “Ft Wayne Indiana Rumble! Dec 28-30 Also Columbus Ohio winter Nationals QM series!” commented another user.

There were some unorthodox recommendations as well, which included road course and indoor racing action. “Road course in Vegas?” one user asked.

“Buckeye Winternationals indoors in Columbus?” quipped another. However, some wanted Kyle to take a break from racing as they wrote, “Go Christmas shopping for @samanthabusch.”
