It’s a day of celebration for the entire NASCAR world, especially for the fans of Rowdy. Kyle Busch has got his name etched in the history of NASCAR, not for his first victory of the season but for his record-breaking performance. The man, who has been in the cup series for over 20 years, surpasses Richard Petty by getting a glorious win at the Sunday race. By doing this, he set a record. His heroics on the rack marked the 19th season in a row that he has won a Cup Series race. But unfortunately, his biggest supporter, his wife Samantha, was not there to celebrate this joyous occasion.

It is Kyle Busch’s first victory post his surprising association with Richard Childress Racing. This is all he needed in the new season to prove his mettle with his new team. As the chequered flag dropped, he crossed the finish line ahead of Chase Elliott, Ross Chastain, Daniel Suarez, and Kevin Harvick.

Samantha expressed her happiness as well as sadness!

Samantha wasn’t present cheering for Rowdy at the NASCAR Cup Series at the Auto Club Speedway due to Lennix’s health. But that did not stop her from making things special for her husband.

She posted a reel on Instagram of her and the kids watching the race with Rowdy winning it. The sheer joy and excitement of all is evident in the video.

She captioned the reel, “Omg I seriously can’t believe it! I mean well I can- Kyle, Randall the 8 team and all RCR are all bad ass but to be so strong right out the gate this is absolutely amazing!!!! I’m so beyond proud of everyone there and so grateful that they gave Kyle this amazing opportunity!” 

She expressed her dismay about she and the kids not making it to the race. She further wrote, “We’re so sad we didn’t come this weekend, but Lennix is teething and not sleeping well so we didn’t think that was best for Kyle race weekend. He’ll have to get another for us in Vegas for us! #RowdyNation are you as excited for this season as I am?!”

NASCAR Fans were ecstatic about the Kyle Busch family win!
