More on Kurt Busch
Description from Wikipedia:
Kurt Thomas Busch (born August 4, 1978 in Las Vegas, Nevada) is a professional American race car driver. He drives the No. 2 Miller Lite Dodge in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series. He is the older brother of Kyle Busch, also a professional driver, and the two have raced against one another on many occasions.
In 2004, Busch finished eight points ahead of Jimmie Johnson to win the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Championship in the first ever season using the "Chase for the Cup" points format. At the time, he drove the No. 97 Sharpie/Irwin Industrial Tools Ford for Roush Racing. Busch departed Roush at the end of 2005, moving to Penske Racing and replacing the retiring Rusty Wallace in the No. 2 Miller Lite sponsored Dodge Charger. With a 2006 win in the Nationwide Series, Busch became one of only 18 drivers with a win in all three of NASCAR's top divisions (Sprint Cup, Nationwide, and Camping World Truck Series).
Busch is a second-generation NASCAR driver his father Thomas also raced. He was the runner-up finisher in the closest finish in NASCAR history at Darlington Raceway on March 16, 2003. After an exciting and near-explosive two-lap side-by-side battle with Ricky Craven around the tight and tricky 1.366-mile track, Craven crossed the finish line only 0.002 seconds ahead of Busch in the photo-finish.
