Kurt Busch is still coming to grips with his brother’s death.
Kyle Busch died at the age of 41 on May 21 hours after pulling out of Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte More Speedway this weekend due to a “severe illness.”
Kurt, a star NASCAR racer in his own right and six years older than Kyle, mourned his loss on Monday
“Finding a silver lining, I reflect back on the days Kyle and I raced anything we could get our hands on,” Kurt said in an emotional Instagram post that included a collage of photos of the two brothers together.
“My heart is broken, but I know your spirit will always ride with me.
Rest easy, little brother.”
Kurt thanked everyone for the support his family has gotten since Kyle’s shocking passing.
“Thank you from the bottom of my heart,” he wrote.
“Thank you, everyone, for the well wishes, support, and love for my brother and our family.”
Kurt, a 2026 NASCAR Hall of Fame inductee, offered a warning to other racers before Kyle broke onto the scene.
“You think I’m a pretty good race car driver?”
he famously quipped in 2001.
“Wait until you see my brother.
He’s the best driver in the family.”
Kyle joined his brother on the Roush racing team as a 16-year-old junior that same year, but changes to the minimum age requirements allowed the younger sibling to “step out of the shadow of Kurt.”
With his passing, Kyle is survived not only by Kurt, but also his wife, Samantha and two children — son Brexton, who recently turned 11, and 4-year-old daughter Lennix.
