Kyle Busch recently opened up about a humorous and somewhat surprising moment involving his son, Brexton Busch, that has caught the attention of NASCAR fans. During a candid interview, Kyle revealed that Brexton has taken a special interest in a widely circulated video of his father in a heated physical altercation with fellow NASCAR driver Ricky Stenhouse Jr. The video, which captures a tense moment between the two seasoned drivers, has apparently become a favorite of young Brexton—so much so that he watches it repeatedly.
Kyle, amused by his son’s fascination, admitted that he didn’t expect Brexton to be so captivated by that particular incident. In fact, Brexton has memorized parts of the footage and seems to enjoy the dramatic aspect of the confrontation. What really surprised Kyle, however, was what Brexton decided to do next. The youngster took it upon himself to send a message—either through a text or social media—to Ricky Stenhouse Jr., the driver involved in the altercation with his dad. While the exact contents of the message weren’t disclosed, Kyle hinted that it was bold and reflected Brexton’s loyalty to his father.
The entire episode has sparked a range of reactions, from laughter to concern, across the NASCAR community. Many fans are intrigued by how the younger generation views the more intense aspects of racing culture. For Kyle, the moment served as a reminder of how closely children watch their parents—and how even conflicts can leave a lasting impression. He acknowledged that while the fight wasn’t something to be proud of, Brexton’s reaction highlighted the unique dynamic between father and son in the fast-paced world of motorsports.
