Quizzed frequently about her anxiety levels when either Brexton or Kyle is racing, Samantha candidly expresses greater nervousness watching her son. Comparing it to the jitters she gets when Kyle races on a super-speedway, it’s evident that maternal feelings supersede the spouse’s concern. Who knew that behind the roaring engines and adrenaline-fueled races, there’s a universal tale of a mother’s anxious heart?

The 2 times NASCAR Cup champion’s wife recently took to her Instagram to express her concerns and added a hint of humor. She said, “One of the most asked questions I get is, ‘Does it make you more nervous to watch Brexton race or Kyle?’For sure Brexton!”

Samantha added she often wants to write to NASCAR to not let her son race on big tracks. She added, “I feel it’s like watching Kyle on a super speedway with the crazy nerves I get! I joke with him that one day if he goes to the big leagues I want to write a note to NASCAR that says sorry my baby can’t race the big tracks, to which Brexton gives me the biggest eye roll 😂 Well this weekend Kyle is at Dega too so just bring on all the nerves 😬”

The racing nerves double this weekend with both Kyle at Talladega. The looming races promise an overdose of excitement and anxiety for Samantha. Racing fans, while reveling in the speed and strategy, might now spare a thought for the families, especially mothers like Samantha, whose hearts race faster than the cars on the tracks.
