Kyle Busch Won All the Time Until the Checkered Flags Dried up. Can He Find NASCAR Success Again?
Kyle Busch, in a contract year with Richard Childress Racing, aims to end a 94-race Cup Series winless streak while managing an $8.5 million lawsuit, seeking to reclaim championship form.
- This year, Kyle Busch is in a contract season after moving to Richard Childress Racing in 2023, aiming to end a 94-race winless stretch.
- RCR's early Next Gen advantage faded as rivals like Gibbs, Hendrick, and Team Penske soon caught up, while Mars' exit after 2022 strained JGR's resources.
- Despite an early pole, Busch led only 19 laps and finished with a middling result that extended his active Daytona 500 losing streak to 21 races.
- RCR elevated Jim Pohlman to Busch's crew-chief role, tapping him from Dale Earnhardt Jr.'s developmental team, while Busch filed an October lawsuit claiming $10.4 million losses against Pacific Life Insurance Company.
- Busch's 232 career wins and two Cup titles frame the legacy question he faces as he plans to race Legends cars and junior late model series this year and hopes to race Trucks with son Brexton at 17.
