The competition in the Cup Series is usually quite intense and cutthroat. But once in a while, it may feel amazing to get humbled by someone once in a different form of racing. It gets even better if that person is your own son. This has been the case for two-time Cup Series champion, Kyle Busch.
The Richard Childress Racing driver recently revealed how his son, Brexton, had put pressure on him to win at dirt racing. Brexton has already won his first dirt race of the season, but Kyle is yet to grab the chequered. But with the chances for his 2nd season win increasing by the day, hopefully, that is not too farfetched of a dream.

The interviewer asked if Rowdy had the chance to be “somewhat of a decent dirt driver” in comparison to his son. He responded to the question in a cheerful way.
Busch smiled and told FloRacing, “He’s already got more pavement wins than I do this year. So he’s letting me know about that.”
“He hasn’t won on dirt. I haven’t won under yet this year, but actually, he did, he got a junior sprint win… So I take that back. But no, I mean, yeah, of course anytime I ever go to the racetrack and I don’t win, he always wants to tell me why I didn’t win.”
