“Every week, there’s so much to learn” - Kurt Busch
Five-time Xfinity Series champion Kurt Busch’s journey has not started well with his new team, 23XI Racing. The veteran driver has had three disappointing finishes in the last four races.
During a recent interview, speaking about his outings of the season, Busch said:
The 43-year-old has been in and out so far this season. He will look to finish next weekend’s GEICO 500 on a good note when the green flag drops on Sunday at 3 p.m. EST.
