Our Reading
The habit of legacy lives on.
Richard Childress Racing holds the rights to the No. 8, but will reserve it for Kyle Busch’s son, Brexton. The 11-year-old is already a top young driver in the country. Childress will allow Brexton to run the No. 8 regardless of what team he races for in the future. The team owner is confident that Brexton will carry the Busch legacy for many years to come. Because in NASCAR, legacies are just like cars – they get passed down.
