Kyle Busch finished ninth in the 2024 Chicago Street Race for his best result in over a month. How did he react to the performance, and can it be a springboard for better results and a push to the playoffs?
Also, Frontstretch’s Kevin Nix talks about how the NASCAR Cup Series drivers view the unlimited overtimes rule and if it can be changed, as well as how the countdown timer can be used at other racetracks.
Nix answers the questions on Frontstretch‘s YouTube channel in the video below.

I haven’t read one article on how Kyle reacted by finishing 9th but I don’t need to. He wants to win every single time he straps that helmet on, period. That’s Kyle Busch. Bet ya Samantha knows exactly how Kyle feels about RCR equipment this year lololol we do too.
Who really cares about Kyle and his bad finishes. The people at Front stretch.com. Kyle is not as good as he used to be
Put Hamlin and Kyle in identical Gibbs cars and I think you might be surprised. Hamlins having a good year.
This is what bugs Busch the most. He’s not the young hotshot he used to be. … and my goodness it’s been wonderful to watch him suffer! :-)
One good race doesn’t change your season.
True, but it gives writers something to write about.
Remember after Daytona when the articles were either about “Is this William Byron’s year to win it all?” or “Should Joey Logano be concerned about making The Chase?” lol
100% truth. It gives them something to write about.
Remember who he drives for?
I’m sure he regrets going to RCR
Now that the henrick cars are all locked in theyll share a little more info with the other chevy teams. Trackhouse and RCR will start winning more now.
