Kyle Busch and Joey Logano have a history of clashing with each other. From the tangle at Daytona this year, the infamous brawl from 2017, and the dramatic crash at Kansas in 2013, they have kept the fans hooked.

Kyle was involved in a crash with Logano, which resulted in an early exit from the STP 400, a NASCAR Sprint Cup Series stock car race.

Kyle Busch’s No.18 Toyota hit the Turn 4 wall on lap 104 and slid down the track where Joey Logano’s No. 22 Ford ran into him. Both cars were wrecked for the day, but luckily the drivers came out unscathed.
