Ask anyone about NASCAR’s “bad boy” and they’ll talk about Busch’s talent behind the wheel with confidence. While his nickname raises some eyebrows, there is no denying the potential of the 38-year-old. With over 60 wins to his name in the cup series, Rowdy is indeed a force to be reckoned with.
His latest victory came at the iconic Talladega Super Speedway where his experience proved to be the game changer and the community saw the KB effect sweep over his new sponsor. Despite all of this, his ambition to race in the coveted Indy 500 was left high and dry.
In the exclusive interview, Busch details how he struggled to land a sponsor and how things went south.
With his fellow Cup Series driver, Kyle Larson joining Arrow Mclaren for his Indy 500 run for the much-anticipated run, Busch reflected on his spot being taken away from him.“Larson got the ride that I was slated to get, he’s got that locked up for two years, so I don’t know if it’ll ever happen,”
He added, “I’m not going to be making calls and pushing for it. If somebody calls me and says that they’re ready to go and it all lines up right, so be it. We’ll go do it.”
