From heel to hero in many fan's eyes has been the reputation of Kyle Busch. The Richard Childress Racing driver said that NASCAR has told him he's been runner-up in the fan vote for Most Popular Driver the past few years, and that the winning margin has been shrinking.
*Note: this was filmed before Chase Elliott was announced the 2023 winner.

I lost a lot respect for Dick over the whole Creed/Hill racing incident. He handled that very poorly.

Richard knows how to calm him down when he gets a little worked up, and he also has better equipment than he did at Gibbs when he left. I cheer for him too lol.

kyle has matured TREMENDOUSLY over the years.that alone has broadened his fan base.kurt has shown him what NOT to do.i do respect kurt though.he made his way to the top of the sport TWICE.after his deal with penske, many thought his career was finished.but he fought his way back to the winners circle with 2311.tom bush can be proud of his boys.

At the track each weekend there’s only 2 driver specific merch haulers. Kyle and Chase

Denny Hamlin is the new Kyle Busch. Denny gets all the boos now.

He’s changed anyway. He’s been humbled

A family and young kids will do that to most renegade men. When you become a dad you realize you want to be a better role model for your kids

He has more right to be in the HOF than JR.

He’s almost my favorite driver except for Larson. As long as he drives a Chevy.

I always found it very strange for grown adults to boo anyone. Cheer all you want but to boo an athlete or team is kinda weird if you ask me.

It would be cool if the fans most popular driver didn’t suck.

The evolution of it is funny. Been an Earnhardt fan my whole life and use to boo him hardcore. Went to 2 races this year and cheered for him lol

@scottgarrett744 7 ай бұрын

He's come a long way since hooking up with RCR... He's still not my favorite driver but he's also not on the bottom of my list anymore, lol...

I voted for Kyle to win the most popular driver this year.

No matter what anyone says, I love this guy. Always honest.

I never liked him until he went to RCR

Obviously JGR is the problem. KB went from a giant turd to a much more likeable guy when he joined RCR

The award is a scam anyway. Chase didn't win that. Deegan didn't win the truck one either, come on. That award goes to who NASCAR wants it to go to.

NASCAR is in big trouble with the current drivers. No personality
