If successful, Kyle Busch and Timmy Hill will hold an insane NASCAR record
Running multiple consecutive races is routine for Busch. At Bristol Motor Speedway in August 2010, he turned into the main driver to clear a race end of the week tripleheader of NASCAR’s best three national series. And has done it again from that point forward. Additionally, Busch has 209 victories across Cup (56), Xfinity (96), and trucks (57).

The Joe Gibbs Racing driver sums that these seven races will be less burdening because of their condensed plans. He says, “With this, all you can do is show up, you get in the vehicle and you run the race,”.
In addition, “I feel as though it sounds really labor-intensive and heavy and man. But in my mind, I’m kind of like, ‘Man, I don’t know if it’s really going to be that bad.’ But I’ll let you know when it’s all said and done.”
On the other hand, This will be Timmy’s first attempt to try multiple headers across all the three nationwide series.
