Ever since Kyle Busch announced that he would be leaving for RCR come next season, quite a few have been asking who would sponsor him there. A few weeks ago we saw Busch get into a conversation with Sling on Twitter to talk about a potential deal. Now, Rowdy Busch seems to be targeting an even bigger commercial partner.

Billionaire Elon Musk recently announced himself as the ‘Chief Twit’, after buying Twitter for $44 billion. Furthermore, Musk recently posted a tweet about how verified accounts on the social media platform would have to pay $8 a month to keep their account verified. Notably, Kyle Busch retweeted it, and said, Hey @elonmusk, while I love the number choice, I think we need to make an official deal first…

It was obviously a wordplay, or shall we say a number play, where Busch referred to the $8 price as his soon-to-be number #8 car in RCR. Musk has not responded to Busch, but the fan base went bonkers over how Busch approached this “potential” sponsor over Twitter.

Busch had earlier done the same thing with a company called Sling, where he replied to one of Sling’s tweets, and soon the company responded in a positively inclined manner.

It would certainly be amazing for fans to see a Twitter-sponsored Chevrolet racing in circles with Kyle Busch sticking his finger out of the window, like in the good old times. Maybe, if not Twitter, Musk sure has a lot of other ventures going, perhaps, even the Boring Company would suffice. Who would not like to see something like Rowdy Busch riding a Boring Company Chevy?
