- NASCAR Cup champs Kurt Busch (2004) and Kyle Busch (2015, 2019) detail their sibling rivalry that’s progressed from their time as kids wrecking each other in karts to adults in the limelight and racing’s biggest stage. The two share stories of their beefs and brotherly bonds, including a crash at the 2007 All-Star Race that halted conversation for a year and a wink and a pass at Kentucky in 2019.

I didn’t like Kurt in the beginning, but after he was humbled and lost the attitude, he became one of my favorite drivers, and now I love to see him win
Me too! ....but I will never been a fan of Kyle, I cannot stand him!
When did he lose the attitude and arrogance?
Same!
@@wadelucas9732 After it came out he Bitch Slapped his Wife. He didn't want to be known as a Wife beater, so apparently he's a changed man (QQ) I hope so, but to me that is close to an Unforgivable act. Only those Close to him know the True Kurt.
You do know its come out that that was a made-up story by someone who's now in prison for fraud yes?
Kurt Busch: “There was sentimental brotherhood and he let me win” wholesome and all
Meanwhile:
Kyle Busch: “My spotter never told me clear...”
😂😂
He did leave him enough racing room. Like he said if it was anyone else he probably wouldn't have. Just a brotherly break
@@packisbetter90 I like how Kyle admitted he would've just stuffed one of his rivals if he had to. Like, we already know that, but he actually admitted it. Lol
Yeah but then again, you can see him swerve in the in car cam in the 07 all star🤣
Graham is such a fantastic host. He brings out the best of the stories and let’s the guests talk without interrupting them. I never thought I’d like both the Busch’s but here I am
One of the greatest sports moments I've ever witnessed was at Kentucky Speedway in 2019. I was there with my Dad and I've never felt a bigger butterfly feeling, than watching Kurt Busch pass his brother on the final lap. Truly a memory I'll cherish forever.
And from the outside!
AmaZing moment
Kurt got in an Indy car for the first time. Raced against the best Indy car drivers in the world. Finished 6th. That’s all you need to know about the world class ability of these guys.
As a day ONE Harvick fan, (yes Rockingham 2001) i have to say i hated both these guys. Now, i still do haha
I'm a huge Kurt fan and I do like Kyle. I'm surprised Kyle hasn't tried the double
Matt Pagel, Kurt Busch also earned a NHRA professional level competition license. His first race, he barely lost to a very experienced NHRA driver.
As much as I'm not a fan of these two guys there is no doubt they can drive. I'm particularly impressed with Kyle's participation and drive to win even in things like iRacing events. He doesn't pass on much anything even if it's virtual. Respect!
packisbetter90 d drrss
Love that last answer from Tom. He is so damn proud of his boys
Out of all the Busch’s, only Tom was ever sponsored by the beer.
I'll bet he drank a bunch of them too.
I love how Graham lets the person he is interviewing actually speak instead of cutting them off every two sentences.
if kurt focused on racing n not being a doughnut during the late 00s early 2010s, he d have way more wins, he s quite likeable now tbh.
You have to chalk it up to seat time. Kyle raced every overlapping truck & Busch race he could. Kurt didn't do that. No, the vehicles aren't the same but enough a like that seat time makes all the difference. When NASCAR took that option away recently Kyle has not been as awesome. Kurt had a lot of cringe worthy moments but his battle with Craven was epic.
He needed to grow up, like all of us at one time, I know 40 year olds who have not grown up yet
No one is perfect but Dale Jr is the best personality in Nascar, period
100% agree had he grown up sooner than later he'd be just as successful as Kyle
Kurt has grown up - Kryle never will
I like how they were interviewed separately. They would probably start throwing hands if they were in the same room.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@TheMan750 Different shows.
I believe this was still during COVID. If you noticed Kyle and the Interviewer were sitting at least 5 feet from each other
They were convenient for each other. You always need someone to keep you on your toes.
Exactly! Not just in racing, but life, in general
Seeing their father leads me to understand where the brothers get their wonderful personalities,
Yeah, they aren't pussies.
LMAO "Little brother syndrome"
Explains alot 🤣
i'm the youngest of three brothers. i've never had 'little brother syndrome'. i just do my thing and be who i am. don't care what they do. what they do isn't what i do. none of us have similar interests, so that competitiveness was just never there i guess.
@@zzz7zzz9 I guess it’s probably different when you do the same thing growing up, and then, for a living. I was never like that as a little brother either, but I’ve got 2 older sisters and no brother, so I never did the same things as they did, obviously. I never minded being a dude. lol
Kurt is still 10x more respectable
Kyle let Kurt drive his Busch car when Kurt was out of a job and Kurt won with it. So They help one another
That Kentucky 2019 story is so cool.
These interviews are absolutely awesome...
This is awesome. The format of this interview is great.
"Hold my beer, watch this." Damnit, Kyle. I don't want to like you.
Kyle Busch's aggressive driving style reminds me of Dale Earnhardt Sr.
@@DucatiPaso750 yes so much Darlington last year it was Earnhardt versus Bill Elliott
@Mason George I don’t think you’ve watched enough Dale film, he dumped several people
@Mason George dale just took people out multiple times, if you want to bring up taking air off the quarter panel Harvick is who you want to look out for
@Mason George yes, and dumping people
But your argument was simply normal drafting and the slingshot, nothing new
This is my only disappointment in the Busch brothers. I get the competition side of it. My brother was the same way. Every sport I played so did he but was just a bit better at everything. I embraced it and was proud of how well he got. He always looked up to me and never thought he was better. But I could see it. Anyways he died in Afghanistan and I dont have that chance any more. The Busch boys still have that chance to show how brothers can compete and be nothing but happy for the other. They are both excellent drivers and I enjoy how they have no filter with the words. I hope they can maybe look at the competition between themselves in a little different light. 2 of the best drivers in the world.
Edit. But I really do enjoy the competitiveness between them and that mindset is why they are both champions. It's in the bloodline you can see it from the old man down to the new tyke. They are racers so I get it and enjoy it and don't change a thing. And the post race interviews are gold. Keep em coming and have a hell of a year boys. Let's see a 1-2 finish this yr
I offer you and your family my sincere condolences sir. Namaste.
@@patgenier1965 thank you sir
Sorry but that's one of the most underplayed reveal ive seen so far, i didnt expect it.
But needless to say, i am sorry for your loss. And i assume your brother is in the military? If so then he died as a hero, and i am very much thankful for his service.
But back to the Busch, i agree. You know, bad bloods between two competing siblings exist, here and there but like you know, up until the point where you hate each other is not healthy at all. You can be angry at them at the field but outside of that, you should back being a family tbh.
@@kami_narisama and ya I apologize for bringing my own family situation into my comment. But yes my brother was army airborne. Look up camp honnaker miracle in Afghanistan. My brother was the miracle in that name. I think it was the first battle out there and they eventually opened up a fob and named it after my brother and his fellow soldier who lost his life that day. But ya watching this video reminds me of the competitiveness between me and my brother. The busch brother have my vote though
@@onetimer13541 it's alright man, i still understand your point. Your brother is a hero.
That said, i think that despite their competitiveness, if one of the Busch brothers gets hurt, im 100% sure that the other would worry. Competition be damned, the life of your siblings is much more important
I have 2 brothers and I totally understand their competitive nature lol. They may not have talked for a year but they both knew it would be resolved eventually, it’s not like they were arch enemies or anything. They were both hard headed much like my brothers and I. We’re into our 50s and 60s now, I’m the youngest and still get picked on constantly lol. Some things never change.
Family dynamic is however it manages to manifest itself.
These interviews are great!
Both are excellent in the tv commentary booth too.
I've known about this for years. Awesome to see them all talking about it! Thank you very much for sharing!!
P.S. Grandmothers rock!!!
I was at that race at Kentucky. It was one of the most exciting finishes to watch. The atmosphere was insane!
Great interview with the Bad Boys of Nascar.👍
Kurt is one the most underrated drivers of all time
Fact!! 👍
It's Kyle's world everyone else is just in the way
What a great program! Really enjoy’d it !
Ol dad seems like he has humbled out
No, just someone else is paying for their stuff.
And thats really a shame
Old man Tom is cool as hell you give him a diet Mountain Dew and he’s happy as hell I know him personally
I started to be able to tolerate Kurt ever since he was on Dale JRs podcast last year. He was humbled and owned up to his actions of the past. After watching this I still can't stand Kyle. It's a shame. He didn't care that he wasn't talking to his brother ? That was arrogant.
no such thing as brothers or family on a race track
Racing and winning comes first
Wasn't arrogant, as he was sure he didn't cause the wreck.
That was 13 years ago
damn Tom Busch is a fucking OG what a cool dude
Great interview
My brother and I were every bit as competitive as the Busch brothers and way more. It also came we would not speak to each other for many years. We settled our scores, as petty as they now sound about a year before my brother died. Dont waste what time you have .
Reminds me a little of Noel and Liam Gallagher's relationship.
“What’s this mask for.” “ SO YOU CAN EAT MY DUST WOOAAAHH”
0:30 PRESENTED BY CREDIT ONE BANK
Lmao get out sir
American
The first race of me watching nascar in 2010 I loved Kyle and he’s been my favorite driver ever since
Need more of this. Very cool
Busch brothers story is dynamic and awesome. Still waiting for the day when the next dude try’s to fight either one of them, I feel like now in current times the other brother would come to help
Dad is awesome!
It is so sad to see the lure of victory and pride be one's first priority over brother love
Two awesome divers that bring alot to the sport
Watching this at a qtr of the speed is hilarious!!! Notice how Tom sounds normal at 2X the speed.
Graham what kind of computer are you using??
That’s an apple Imac
I'm a fan of Kurt, even while Jeff (my favorite) was on the grid. Especially when he had his meltdowns. Not all of them were justified but it brought some...personality, to the sport.
Grandma saves the day
I’m so glad my brother and I’s relationship isn’t like theirs. My brother and I have never been seriously competitive over anything. We’re still brothers so of course we both still do things that annoy the other, but it’s nothing major that could end up with us not talking for a year.
you know kurt and kyle are really chill when not on the track
Funny at the time of this video, two brothers sticking to their story...
There needs to be a movie about them growing up. So many fictional stories are made based on these things but here's a good interview with a blueprint for a good true story type of movie
Yes I agree it would be a very interesting movie
Imagine if they set the brotherly rivalry aside and tried to work together to win
gotta be proud, raised two cup champs.
These guys have 94 combined wins. No other brother combination in NASCAR history even comes close in that win total. That's a lot of racing talent in that family.
Awesome story😅
I liked Kurt since he ran the 97 car that's what got me into NASCAR
Gotta love the drive and desire to win 💪
That's what racing is about . being competitive . my dad, brother , cousins and myself all race snowmobiles against each other . yes , people get hurt feelings , yet the winner gets bragging rights 😎 adrenaline is God's real gift
The father’s shoes explained it all. No matter how much money his boys has, Im sure the boys help the father out immensely. Father is still down to earth, wrenching tooling, getting dirty regardless how much money the family has. 👏🏻💪🏻
Gotta love um'.
Not a Kyle fan but this video was way cool!! 🤘🏼
Everyone seems to compare kyle to normal? He is an outlayer, winner and champion.. Nothing normal will get that kind of achievement. His brother and father made him the best he could be without ever knowing! Then i start to think, why do we compare everything to normal when normal is, well , normal.. The title of this should have been, the "making of a champion" who would not settle for normal. While everyone was being mature, kyle became the best.
Not speaking to either one of them would be the best win of all
We use to love heroes and those who gave their best and devoted their lives to being the best. Now we expect our would be heroes to be just like all the rest. We are told to praise mediocrity and find fault in those who try and be more. You don't beat the rest and become the best without upsetting those who are and will forever be mediocre. I would rather be led by assholes who won with no regrets than be a follower of those who don't have the balls to deal with the haters and say damn the torpedoes its win or bust.
After hearing and seeing their father I can see why they both have bad tempers.
What are you talking about? I see a pretty thankful dad.
Remember this Dad's money used for them to be racing, he should have been angry for them damaging the equipment.
@@mmoser9483 exactly
1:17 MAC tools. Kyles hauler / garage and B-Rex's (His Son) hauler still have the MAC tool boxes in them to this day haha
These 2 love each other but don't like each other.
I wish my Dad would have helped me build the fastest carts capable of setting track records, and take me to parking lots to practice, and take me to the races to mop up the competition...in turn helping me become a famous race car driver!!!
When I was a kid ALL I wanted was to become a race car driver, and I was told that is fantasy and to forget about that.
In hindsight becoming a race car driver wasn't my destiny... But if I had support like some kids get I might have went on to amazing things.
Ok...back to real life! lol
Awesome dad
My least favorite drivers in nascar but I always love hearing the interviews with them😂just let loose and speak what comes to mind
They can both be jerks, but these dudes are awesome racers.
Even today, the two of them are not friends with each other.
I couldn't go a year without talking to my brothers
I don't think I could be his brother without getting in a fight with him every time we seen each other. Kyle's alot more smug than Kurt seems to be.
Are you sure. Do you know how much of a cancer Kurt was before 2013?
They're actually the same xD
Kurt is not the same person he was years ago he's learned to calm down and mature - Kyle will always be an A-Hole
@@JJA1987 Never Say never. Besides, Kyle has actually matured much since his days at Hendrick and His early days at JGR.
Kurt got wins for D-rate times. Kyle raced for Hendricks and Gibbs
Great interview but wow these brothers had a toxic competitive mentality. And I thought I was bad....
true but that same mentality pushes each other.
You must of never competed against your siblings at something for a long period of time. They clearly respect each other, clearly love each other, but that pretty much goes out the window on Sunday.
put me and brother on a track it would be worse then this
Only one of em is Toxic and one has grown up and its not Kyle - Kurt is respected now
Phillip Rivers of NASCAR
Sooo iconic? Got it
Kurt "and then I spun out Kevin to win a Pontiac Fiero at the 2.4 hours of Le Mullets"
😂
some can say he went down adn some can say you went up??? um no my dude. its not an opinion. YOU WENT UP
Kurt Busch I think is pretty damn close in talent 2 his brother and I don't like Kurt that much..I think if Kurt drove Hendrick and Gibbs equipment his entire career it would be a different story..Roush was stout when he was with them but let's be honest Penske wasn't today's Penske and Gannasi isn't Hendrick or Gibbs level either
Exactly the only time Kurt really had the equipment that Kyle did was when he drove for Stewart Haas but even then he had Harvick in his team and they really revolved that whole team around KH. If Kurt had the equipment Kyle had his whole career then it would for sure be a different story I’d feel.
And James finch
so this explains why kyle is a cry baby..... you didnt let me win. i lost fair and square by 3 inches.
Kyle came ;) 0:06
200+ wins not in cup series but a win is a win and 2 championships
Whatever , both championships were given to him.
Run half of the races and win the championship ?
JGR makes the call to put the tire's on the wrong sides of Truex. Cole Pern said I'm done.
JGR makes the call to put too much tape on Hamlin's car overheating it.
JGR says here Kyle it's yours !
@@adamUDavies lol no
@@Foxdidnothingwrong Facts don't lie !
@@adamUDavies what “facts” all that is opinions
@@adamUDavies what facts those are just wrong opinions
kURT WAS IN NASCAR AND DOING SOME WINNING, ENOUGH TO BE KNOWN. SOMEONE KURT ABOUT BEING GOOD AND KURT SAID "IF YOU THINK I AM GOOD WAIT TIL MY YOUNGER BROTHER GETS HERE , MEANING HE IS A LOT BETTER
i am actually shocked that kyle was mad that his brother didnt let him win. like what the actual ....
Was this sarcasm? Kyle Busch get angry or upset when.... Everything.
Even if he wins he might get mad.
In 2005, my nephew, me and 2 friends all took time off of work. Last minute deal because a friend of ours had 4 seasonal tickets that were impossible to get at the time. We drove from IL. To Ky, spent the night at a hotel. Spent the weekend at Bristol, best weekend ever! Row 10 right off turn one! Best weekend ever! Now im gonna listen to this fool talk about a spat over a $1M Race? All of us have the money now to actually go to races but we all gave up on the hype cause its shit now. We dont even watch the races on tv anymore. Js
If your a real fan of NASCAR you have to say the Bush Brothers made the sport more exciting than any other Brother duo, Ever.
Great interview Graham! Still...they are both guilty of douchebaggery in the past.
This is pretty much like kurt and mark from hot wheels
Man brother should not be that way got let that go I bet if they could have got along thier no telling where they both my be my boys fault like dogs when thier where little and I allways told them you are brother s and one day that may be the only thing they would have
I’ve been asked by my friends to choose Kyle Busch or Kurt Busch? I say Kurt
After this it's a little clearer where these two got their class. Talented, yes. Class, non existent.
Kyle was in the right, Had his 18 in there had the pass !! Kurt is wrong.
Kyle is one of those dudes that is insanely talented and disliked for how he acts on the track, but we’d miss him when he retires.
Nope not at all, once he retires I'm throwing a party because he's obnoxious as hell
Here from I am athlete
Kyle is still immature. Don't think I'll ever like him.
Glad he hasn't changed to have you be accepting of his ways. Because I bet you wouldn't be, even then.
I'll never like him either - He's a cancer
Imagine telling someone to let another person win. That's bullshit family or not you don't juat give other people shit like that
Not that this is in anyway the same, but my som was in Bible quizzing and the kids were all told to not jump to answer questions so that two of the other kids could answer them because they were in their final year and so far had perfect records. The coaches wanted them to end the year with perfect records. I threw a fit and pulled my kid out and told them what I thought of their “Christian” ways. So lots of people expect you to just let them win.
FKB
My husband and I met Kyle in Atlanta in 2006. My husbands company then (kellogg) sponsored him at the time. Kellogg paid for us to go along with the other supervisors and their wives. He was really arrogant and a smartass, but We still have his hats! LOLLL Kyle Busch autograph on the hats. PFFFFT. All the questions that was asked him by our other travel companions he acted like it was a big pain to even answer them and the answers were very vague and short. He is NOT what he seems, thats for sure
No that's exactly what I would except from him...
That was 15 years ago, 21 is an arrogant age lol
@@ashketchumsdad Yes, he sure was that! Seems he has mellowed now. Kellogg dropped him cause he couldn't win any races, but he has since done really well.
Hmmm 15 years ago...no way he's any different now.
Kellogs was pretty much Hendricks sponsor with Terry then went to Kyle. I think Mears and Mark Martin had it after then it went part time to Edwards before leaving NASCAR entirely
Kurt - Thumbs Up - Kryle - Thumbs Down
