This is my entire Kyle Busch collection. My diecasts and first trading card. KB was my favorite driver since the 2015 Quaker State without me even knowing it was Kyle, the M&M’s drew me in😅. 2024 was my first ever race that I went to in person, and Kyle was driving the Zone scheme. One of my favorites so I’m glad I was able to get the diecast. There will never be another Kyle Busch, RIP Rowdy🏁
Two out of my nine Rowdy diecasts that I have. These two are my most prized pieces. Miss him everyday. His last cup win was my first race.
I bought the only 2 I saw for sale back in the day. (Feebay)
Just the last part would be neat to see!
Not only does the card have 2 different "Laps Led" for Kyle.... it also has his last name misspelled on the back.... smh.
You would expect a company that's focused on racing to get the race details right-
Are mistakes like this still normal for Lionel? Hopefully they would have tightened up their editting after almost 10 years and don't have any issues like this today, right?.....
Yesterday I attended the Cup race at Iowa Speedway. It was the 37th race I’ve attended. It was also the first race I ever attended that Kyle Busch did not race in. It was cathartic to say the least.
During prerace, I placed a tribute sticker right at the start/finish line. I was unsure I’d be allowed to, or if track workers would keep it there. Or if it would even survive the 350 lap race. But as the old 18 car was doing its burnout, I couldn’t help but notice that my sticker had survived the race.
