The rain-washed Chicago Street Race had a chaotic start last season and a caution was faced by Busch in the initial laps. Kyle Busch, who began the race from the 18th position, encountered a loss of control as he navigated Columbus Drive. Approaching Turn 6, his vehicle collided forcefully with the tire barrier at the intersection of Columbus and Balbo Drive.

After the incident where “Rowdy” slid off the track and collided with the tire barrier, he was successfully pulled out. After that, he managed to continue in the race without further complications.

The wet track led to this unwelcome incident in the overall good race. This is exactly why Samantha wished for no rain this year. Let us see if her husband can turn the tables this time, erasing previous memories.
