I still can’t believe we lost Kyle Busch yesterday. Like so many people in racing, I’m shocked and heartbroken.
Over the last couple of summers racing at the Cookout Summer Shootout in Charlotte and other various INEX events around the nation, I had the chance to race with Brexton, spend time around the Busch family, and see firsthand how much Kyle loved racing and his family. He was someone so many young racers looked up to — including me.
Kyle was one of the fiercest competitors our sport has ever seen, but beyond that, he inspired an entire generation of kids chasing racing dreams. Getting to be around him, Samantha, Brexton, and Lennix are memories I’ll always be thankful for.
My heart is broken for Brexton. Sending love and thoughts to you, Samantha, Lennix, and the entire Busch family during this unimaginable time. The racing world will never be the same without Rowdy.
Rest in peace, Kyle. 🏁❤️

Congrats to another Topeka, KS native, Gary Woodland on winning the PGA Tour’s Houston Open. Such an inspiration to everyone! This pic is from 2020, my younger brother Dash (in blue) and I with Gary at Topeka Country Club.

A very sad day in our racing world. Greg did a lot for the industry and will be missed greatly. He was not only a great driver on the track but even a better human off it. RIP Biffle family. You will always be remembered. 😢

The Birth of a Rivalry—Falcons vs. Ravens Set to Clash
Big week for me — but this time, not behind the wheel! 🏎️➡️🏈
Tomorrow, my Washburn Rural Middle School Falcons (5-1) take on the Washburn Rural North Middle School Ravens (3-3) in what’s sure to become one of the most exciting young middle school football rivalries in Kansas. Kickoff is set for 3:30 PM Tuesday at North, and this one is gonna be special!
A lot of us grew up playing football together, but with the opening of Washburn Rural North Middle School this year, our once united squad has split in two, creating a new and natural rivalry. For the very first time — friends turned foes for four quarters of football. 🏈
What makes it even more special? In just a couple of years we’ll all reunite under one banner at Washburn Rural High School — coming together once again to represent our community as one team, one family, and one school. 💪
Tomorrow’s matchup is more than just a game, it’s the birth of a tradition. One community, two schools, all heart ❤️
It’s all Washburn Rural family in the end — but for tomorrow, you’ve gotta pick a side! 💙 or 🖤 ?
