Dale Earnhardt Jr’s Plea for Driver to Break NASCAR Record Leads to Heated Kyle Busch Debate

After the NASCAR race at Texas Motorspeedway, Noah Gragson picked up his 4th consecutive race win this season. this certainly boosted the confidence of JR Motorsports co-owner, Dale Earnhradt Jr and prompted him to believe that Gragson could push for a record five consecutive wins in the Xfinity series. However, as per a NASCAR journalist, there seems to be a catch for that to happen.

Motorsports reporter, Holly Cain, stated, “@DaleJr says of his JR Motorsports driver  @NoahGragson after today’s 4th straight NASCAR Xfinity Series win … “I’m proud of Noah and there’s no reason why he can’t go out there and set the record and win 5 (in a row).”

While it is certainly possible for Gragson to set a record, however, journalist Jeff Gluck, pointed it out that the record for 5 back to back wins was already set in place by none other than Kyle Busch.

NASCAR Fans react to Jeff Gluck’s answer stating Kyle Busch remains unbeaten in 5 Xfinity races back to back

Fans were skeptical of Gluck’s answer and countered that with theories that he did not win that record, on a consecutive basis, but rather by missing races in between.

Some fans stated that Busch cherry-picked tracks that favored his 5 race wins stream but that would not classify as consecutive, since he skipped races in between.

Well if the fans are correct on this one, then all eyes will be pointed at Noah Gragson for him to win yet again at the next race and pick up his record for 5 “consecutive” race wins in the Xfinity Series. That would surely be an achievement for Gragson before he heads off to race for the King of NASCAR, Richard Petty’s NASCAR Cup Series Team from the next season. He will have the opportunity to start his Cup career with a new high and new found energy to push for wins while surrounded by the big boys of the sport. What do you reckon?
