Kyle Busch Glad has final decision made to Sell Away KBM After Embarassing Truck Series...

Just prior to the Craftsman Truck Series finale, the racing icon Kyle Busch had revealed the inner workings that had happened during the sale of Kyle Busch Motorsports. Throwing apart the curtains on the sudden deal with Spire Motorsports, he’d explained how he did not expect the team to agree to his offer of selling the entirety of KBM.

While the move itself was a surprise for Kyle Busch as it was for the rest of us, it did leave the two-time Cup Series champion several millions richer. And after Friday’s Truck Series turmoil of chaos, he is only all the more glad that he will not be mixed up anymore in the muddy affairs of the sport, at least as a team owner.

Young drivers showing unprofessionalism on the track isn’t a new issue. Just a few weeks earlier, Dale Jr had expressed his disappointment with drivers from the CARS Tour. After Friday’s messy Truck Series finale, many more have followed suit. With the likes of Martin Truex Jr., Denny Hamlin, and Kyle Busch expressing their takes on it, Richard Childress’s #8 driver was perhaps the most pleased of them all.

Revealing that he had not even attended the event and instead went out to have dinner with his family, Kyle Busch said on Saturday, “I mean, there’s no respect whatsoever. Everybody runs over everybody, tears up equipment. So, yeah, I’m glad I’m not an owner of it. But honestly, I’m still a driver of it, so still have to deal with

Kyle Busch and his wife Samantha Busch had built their Truck Series team into something of a juggernaut in the field. In the 13 years of its existence, Kyle Busch Motorsports has become the most successful franchise in the series with 100 career wins. While the driver certainly has his regrets over selling the entity that he had built from scratch, the events of Friday definitely carried some weight off his heart.

However, there were others for whom the crash-filled ordeal in the lowest rung was a humiliating affair. The race which had four overtime restarts and constant crashes had angered Martin Truex Jr. He said, as reported by ESPN, “I was not impressed. That is not professional auto racing. It’s a joke, they need to fix it.” The day had a heavy flavor of Carson Hocevar’s mischief as the Cup Series-bound driver had crashed his contender Corey Heim’s truck. While, the #19 driver had been critical of Hocevar, his teammate, Denny Hamlin hoped that some action would be taken by NASCAR.

While Kyle Busch, as he himself stated, is not on the owners’ side of these affairs anymore, he is still on as a driver. On Sunday, the Cup Series finale will unfold featuring Kyle Busch, Truex Jr., and Denny Hamlin. Hopefully, the opinion of Busch that the “disrespect” is in all three days of the racing weekend doesn’t find its way into Phoenix on the season finale.
