Kyle Busch may be a lot of things, but he is certainly an excellent racer—arguably, one of the best drivers of his generation. To win two Cup Series championships, register 60 wins, and finish in the top five 236 times is no child’s play. Having said that, Rowdy Busch recently expressed some regret in context to Joe Gibbs Racing.
Derek Daughtery has been a long-time friend of Busch and is also the executive producer of the documentary. Recently, “Awful Announcing” got in touch with him to get some more details concerning Rowdy, if the documentary has Rowdy reflecting or admitting mistakes of the past or does it showcase Rowdy’s unapologetic self.
“The funny thing is that when I wrote the whole story out, that I wanted was him to look at a camera and say, ‘Hey, I’m just Kyle Busch, and I’m here to race and win and do a burnout.’ But even (Kyle) knows, ‘Hey, this is only the first half, I want to win. Derek, I still want to win three or four more championships. I know, I want to with Joe Gibbs Racing, I probably threw away three championships.'”
Kyle won the championships in 2015 and 2019 but finished third, second, and fourth in the 2016, 2017, and 2018 Cup Series seasons, respectively. He had the best chances of converting those margins into titles back then when he was in amazing rhythm.
