“He Better Not Get Laughed Again” – Hendrick Motorsports’ Star Driver Takes Sarcastic Jab at Talented Kyle Busch Ahead of His Unique Dirt Racing Initiative

There is certainly no denying the talent of Kyle Busch. With two NASCAR Cup Series championships, 61 wins, 238 top-five, and 359 top-ten finishes, he has certainly proven to be one of the best in the sport. However, he still has the zeal to not only compete at the highest level but also to try and win every possible trophy. That being said, one of his recent decisions concerning dirt racing has instigated a dig from one of the Hendrick Motorsports superstars.

Busch recently confirmed his decision to participate in the FloRacing Late Model Challenge. His adventure to try his hand in different types of races continues with this race in Tennessee. However, there was some banter involved from one of the HMS drivers.

Hendrick Motorsports star driver takes a dig at Kyle Busch amid his latest announcement

It is not the first time that Busch will be trying his luck with a dirt late model. He tried it in 2012 while driving for Scott Bloomquist at Eldora Speedway. Subsequently, he participated in the Bristol Dirt Nationals at Bristol Motor Speedway in 2021. However, he has failed to succeed in triumphing in any of those races. So, the stakes are high this time.

Rowdy will be driving a late model prepared by Brandon Overton and the Well Motorsports team at Volunteer Speedway. Alongside him, Busch will find 2021 NASCAR Cup Series champion, Kyle Larson. The HMS driver recently had his say on the Richard Childress Racing driver’s decision to participate.

Larson was quick to point out how Busch’s experience should help him settle easily in the race. However, he has set high standards for the 37-year-old. He said,

Obviously, it was a funny bit of banter from the 30-year-old before he heaped praise on Busch.

Larson said,

It is understandable why the 2021 Coca-Cola winner is a big fan of Busch. The same reason why well-known late-model dirt driver Overton is all gaga over him.

Brandon Overton couldn’t control his excitement over meeting Kyle Busch

It would be interesting to see how the former Joe Gibbs Racing driver does in the dirt late-model race. Or will he give Larson the chance to banter about him once more?
