Kyle Busch certainly is a force to be reckoned with on the track. With 3 wins, the Richard Childress Racing driver is currently tied up with his former driver and KBM prodigy, William Byron, for the most number of wins this season. Though the #8 driver is a strong contender for the title as we head to the Nashville Superspeedway, eager fans have unearthed a rather fascinating similarity between the “Rowdy” and RFK Racing driver, Chris Buescher.
Busch’s rival and fellow veteran Brad Keselowski‘s NASCAR team recently teased the online community with a witty tweet, citing a close similarity between Busch and Buescher. With just hours remaining for the race, RFK’s witty post has caused fans to seek deeper insights.

Kyle Busch arguably is one of the most popular drivers in the sport. Over the years, Busch has matured from being a brash, cocky Las Vegas kid to a more wise and seasoned driver while still being the outspoken “Rowdy” he is. While the #8 driver switched bases from Toyota at Joe Gibbs Racing to Chevy, his loyal fanbase never left his side. On the contrary, Busch’s already enormous fanbase got even bigger.
As we head into another race week following NASCAR’s off-week, RFK Racing has upped the antics with a seemingly unsuspecting tweet that has riled up fans. Tweet had a hilarious caption to it that read, “Kyle Busch just came over to Buescher and says ‘my shoes match your car bro’ and walks off,” drawing similarities between Busch’s shoe and their new honeycomb pattern on the #17 Mustang. RFK Racing’s tweet was indeed a head-turner as many online fans actively speculated for more inside scoops.

As soon as Keselowski’s co-owned team popped the funny tweet, online fans soon jumped on board with their thoughts, commenting about the close resemblance. The nearness doesn’t end there. While Trackhouse Racing‘s Ross Chastain secured the pole position for the first time in his career, Busch and Buescher will start the race at 11th and 12th place as the RCR driver gained the spot with a razor-thin 0.002 second difference, edging out the RFK driver with a time of 27.945.
