Why is Kyle Busch so dominant in races this year and he is just pulls away?

Question

It seems that Busch has been able to do this all year so far...is his car fast? Is he doing something people aren't? There is something amiss...It isn't exciting watching him pull away from people.

Answer 1

Let's see...

Good car.

Good team...

Good team mates....

Sounds like a good combination to me.

He's on a roll..

Good for him.

Answer 2

i think he sucks and always wins so i think he is cheating somehow

Answer 3

If you'll notice, anyone who gets out front runs away with it until deep into a run...then the cars somewhat equal out.  After that, it comes down to NASCAR allowing Toyota more HP.  

Once again, without the big wreck at the beginning or Greg Biffle having issues...the results might have been completely different.

Answer 4

One Reason - Toyota

Toyota has thrown a TON of $$$$ into it's NASCAR program. They were embarrassed last year and weren't going to have that happen again. Meanwhile Ford & GM (Chevy) are losing money so how much do you think they are putting into NASCAR research and development.

Kyle is talented, but Toyota have clearly been pulling more horsepower than anyone esle this year.

Answer 5

it has to do with track position  when biffle lead he was running away  same with edwards

Answer 6

It is a conspiracy...NOT... He is not afraid to push the car further than other drivers

Answer 7

Did you notice who won the first cot car race "Kyle". He adapters  to a different car faster then others. He has the best car control in NASCAR which in my book makes him the best driver. Now that he has equal cars to everyone , which I don't think he had at H.M.S., He's showing what he can do.

Answer 8

Nascar doing what it can to make sure he wins every week.  More horsepower.  

His "bad guy" act is selling tickets and ratings...NASCAR wouldn't have it any other way.

Answer 9

It's fishy  how teams are being totally dominate one year.

To add to your question ... how is it that last year he could not compete with Jimmie Johnson and Jeff Gordon but yet this year Gibbs is doing better than any Hendrick driver and Busch is top dog?

Sounds to me like NASCAR has a new golden boy. Who knows if NASCAR may be letting an illegal bracket slide or car run a little lower rear wing or whatever that will give them an advantage. It's becoming more clear that NASCAR is rigged in favor of certain people.

Answer 10

I don't think that it is any one thing, rather a combination of things. It's not all about  the Gibbs - Toyota horsepower or Tony would be up front every week. It's not all about Kyle's knowledge on the track because other driver's run his line as well. A lot of it has to do with his ability to drive the wheels off of a car that my not be handling the best. Though he whines ( just like other drivers) about a bad handling race car, he still seems to have the ability to drive the wheels off of the car. Last but not least. This year, Kyle is going for the win each and every time he climbs in a race car, he isn't racing for points like most of the other drivers. That makes a big difference. He has been lucky enough for the most part that Gibbs has been able to bullet proof his car just enough to get him Through . I don't like the kid, but it isn't because of his talent...It's his attitude and his mouth.( besides the fact that he consistently goes down in series to races against people who may never have a opportunity to run a cup race and takes money away from them)

Answer 11

He's young and talented.

He has a great team & teammates.

He's just a great driver but most people won't want to admit it because they can't stand someone who has that kind of talent and has the chance to win every weekend.

Answer 12

Kyle Busch is winning because he is pure talent that we rarely see (except maybe when Jeff Gordon came on the scene). It's not the equipment, it's not the team, it's the DRIVER. I can say all this because I have proof. He has the best work ethic of anyone and isn't "lazy." This week he is racing the Trucks on Friday, Nationwide Saturday, and Sprint Cup Sunday, ALL over the country. Not to mention the Prelude to the Dream on Dirt in Eldora, Ohio this  Wednesday. I bet all fans wish their driver had this mentality and just loved to race. It's not the money that makes him want to do it.

It's the pure love of racing.

A lot of people don't want to accept that he has an amazing amount of talent that is rarely seen, but the more they try to deny it, the more it becomes obvious. He has stood up to the pressure and is making Hendrick realize it was a mistake to get rid of him.

The reason it's not the car is because he has

2 wins in the truck series with Billy Balew Motorsports (Not Joe Gibbs)

4 wins in the Nationwide Series (some of those with Braun Racing, not Joe Gibbs)

4 wins in the Sprint Cup (with Joe Gibbs)

Joe Gibbs is the only top tier team mentioned above. The others are average teams with an extraordinary driver.

On top of all of that, he has late model wins on dirt to make him even more impressive, and he may just win the Prelude this week.

His haters will deny, deny, deny and say they are cheating for him, but how does that explain how poor Michael Waltrip Racing and the other Toyota teams are running?

I'll probably get thumbs down, but I've provided the facts, and if people want to deny them, that's their problem. Some of us are able to see talent, though. And Kyle is talented, like it or not.

Answer 13

Kyle Busch is my favorite has been since last year I just think he is a good driver he is young too!  He has prolly been dreaming of this moment his whole life!

Answer 14

If it's pure talent, where was it last year?  Tony's heart isn't in it this year driving a "Camry". Denny is an idiot.

The other question is has his attitude changed or have his handlers coached him well?  I think it will take some adversity to find out.

Answer 15

Toyotas = More Horsepower....

More Horsepower means you can pull away.  It's sad Nascar has come to this.

Answer 16

He's got heart.  It's that desire to win, that fire in his belly, as well as an enormous amount of talent that puts him up front week after week.  He seems to have a great relationship with JG as well as with Addington, and this year he's getting his chance to shine.
