We all knew that Kyle Busch is fast. His win totals in the three major NASCAR-sanctioned series is well-documented. While being too fast for his competitors on a weekly basis is appropriate on the track, his knack for speed landed him in a bit of trouble when he was clocked going approximately 128 miles per hour (almost the track record speed at Bristol) in a 45 mile per hour speed zone near Mooresville, North Carolina.
Busch was sporting a yellow Lexus LFA with his wife Samantha in the passenger seat. He stated that he giving the car a test drive. Come on, Kyle, you got her to marry you, no need to show off now! In all seriousness, Busch was extremely careless, as he continues to show us that he is still not yet transformed into completed maturity the media wants us to believe. In his defense, however, he offered what seemed to be a sincere apology.
"I apologize to the public, my fans, sponsors, and my race teams for my lack of judgement. I take responsibility for my actions and I can assure you that something like this will never happen again. "
This is not the first time one of the Busch brothers have encountered a traffic snafu. In 2005, big brother Kurt was cited for driving under the influence in Phoenix, and reportedly showed the sheriff in Maricopa County little respect. In 2006, Kyle got in a little bit of trouble for chirping his tires when leaving a fast food restaurant.
From now on, I doubt that Kyle Busch will confuse Perth Road with the Talladega Super Speedway.
