Kyle Busch Xfinity every other season: _haha get buschwacked_
Kyle Busch in 2012: *_got full sent to the shadow realm_*
Is that a Super GT reference???
He didn’t have an Uno Reverse Card to pull on the Fat Controller.
The moment you realize that Kyle Busch had more consecutive years of winning in the cup series than in the xfinity series.
That's such a good point.
Is there many drivers with more consecutive seasons with a win in Cup than KB? Maybe Petty and Pearson and a couple of others back in the day. I wonder if anyone in the modern era will top Kyle when he's thru.
Hope you're good.
@@MrMiD.Life.Crisis it didn't actually hit me about how long his streak is until right now
legit even 2020 saw just enough consistency to put together a win
@@Dylan2000YT yeh I think he almost broke his streak last year, didn't he?
I think he's got a longer streak than Jimmie Johnson and Jeff Gordon ever had.
Hope you're good man.
@@MrMiD.Life.Crisis I pointed out 2020 in my initial reply :)
@@Dylan2000YT yeh I know buddy, that's why I said it.
Kyle Busch is nearly unbeatable when he goes to the lower seires.
And then there’s 2012.
I thought for sure it would actually be 2015, what with the Daytona crash
Fun fact: Kurt Busch has one a race with 4 different manufacturers.
When did he win with dodge?
@@carlos_lt42 penske

Which manufacturer will he be driving for next year?

Kyle Busch’s 2012 NASCAR season was so bad, he didn’t even win in Trucks as well.
So this is basically “Bad Seasons: Kyle Busch 2012” with extra steps
(I know some people like hearing that lol. But don’t be toxic)
Eww 2
Plus he didn't even get into the chase in the cup series that year
@@usefultuber1608 that’s how bad it was
My theory is that Kyle Busch got replaced by JJ Yeley for a season and no one noticed.
@@bw-leftturnracing7779 Yeley has actually done well in bad cars for years now. Hopefully Penske will sign him for 2 years in their Xfinity car so he can salvage something out of his career and people will see that he's actually a solid driver.
Hell, his 2012 season in Trucks and Cup Series aswell were all bad across the board.
He didn't win a single Trucks race, and in Cup Series he only had a single victory and missed out on the Chase, finishing 13th in the standings. He's never finished lower than that year since.
That whole year was karma for the Hornaday incident
But it was only mostly due to bad luck. In Cup, he was really close at Watkins Glen, but there was oil on the track, which ruined his hopes for the win (and mostly likely for the Chase). Then, he dominated at Dover, but had to pit due to being low on fuel. At Martinsville, he could also win, if he was more aggressive. At Phoenix, Jeff Gordon's retaliation along with some other cautions robbed him for the dominant win and at Homestead, he had to pit due to being low on fuel again. In Xfinity, he should have won at Kansas, but ran out of fuel in the last lap. And in Trucks, Cale Gale put him into the wall and kept him there in the final lap to make sure he will win.
So if not for a bad luck, he wouldn't be winless in lower series and had more Cup wins.
@@michaelnovak18 If other lesser drivers are going to defeat him, they have to do stuff like Cale Gale did, and as long as it's not really horrible, NASCAR lets it slide. I mean, look what he did to Ron Hornaday in 2011. Look what he did to Kyle Larson in 2018. And, in that 100th win at Nashville, he was racing Justin Allgaier, made a stupid mistake, and cost Austin Cindric a really good racecar. (Go watch the wreck to see what I mean.) Anyways, now that he's done in the Xfinity series, I can safely watch those races again on some of those empty Saturdays I have from time to time.
@@RosaFan161 NASCAR is really tolerant as long as it's an exciting finish. Just look at Cole Custer vs John Hunter Nemechek, for example. It was nasty, what Nemechek did, but no one did anything about it except Custer taking down Nemechek. Besides, in both examples you mentioned, Kyle didn't start the incident. I also don't agree with what Kyle did to Hornaday, but that incident with Kyle Larson was a pure retaliation. Larson nearly wrecked him first, so he simply returned a favor.
Darian using Twitter to give the viewers hints on upcoming videos like this one is pure marketing genius.
“Put 4 on it” is one of the best lines in nascar radio history
I liked the Darlington 2012 meltdown better
@@RazorSharp75426 it’s a good one but when he was so calm he just said “put 4 on it “ gets me every time
@@Rheper. he sounds calm, but he was actually mad and embarassed with the pit mishap. Kinda feel sorry for him tho.
@@RazorSharp75426 oh yea for sure he’s so fed up he didn’t have the energy to be pissed off openly 😂😂 I’ve always liked Kyle and Kurt but tony Stewart is my favorite driver ever so I guess I root for the so called “assholes” 😂😂😂
2012 was a bad season for Kyle Busch not only in Xfinity But in all 3 Touring divisions Especially in Cup where he failed to qualify for the 12 driver Chase
He only won twice bud shoot out and Richmond cup race
Only thing I remember about this is when Kurt wanted to Rip Pockrass's head off. Saying it refrained him from not beating the shit out of him for asking stupid questions
Tbf to Kurt, it was a stupid question
@@DepravedCoTApologist As Tony Stewart has made plenty clear over the years, the media is full of drama-making idiots.

Anyone: *exists*
2012 Kurt Busch: *intense screaming and cussing*
As a Kyle Busch fan, 2012 overall was just full of pain in all series
Especially when Kyle decided to blueball us with a statistically strong performance through the last 10 races.
I'm afraid we can't be friends then.
2:16 a rare moment of Wrecky Spinhouse before Wrecky Spinhouse really existed
That was a hard hit 💀
Not really. Ricky was parked in 2010 because he kept wrecking. He even did it in ARCA too.
1:14 this is my favorite clip of Kurt ever
“Just come back and watch whenever he wins” Welp guess like Ill be watching this weekly
I was at that race at Auto Club I knew Kyle was fuming 😤 on pit road. 😆
I wanted to forget about this 😔
Ya but it shows kyle buschs talent the more he raced
I remember watching this year. Kyle struggle the whole year and this is how joe has the 54 car now in xfinity
1:40 this is basically what is going on with 23XI. The fanbase overestimates a new team potential all the time.
it made no sense how he struggled this year. as weird as it sounds i believe this was his karma for wrecking Ron Hornaday in 2011
probably, the nascar gods usually don’t let you off easy
He also didn't use JGR engines. I believe he used Triad and there's a reason they left.
I'm surprised you didn't include when he ran out of fuel on the final lap in Kansas while leading going into turn 3
Kyle busch:*known for the Ron Hornaday incident*
Kurt on the other hand: *rage quitter*
Kurt is a savage for ripping up that piece of paper 😎
It was also one of the best xfinity seasons in years. Can't imagine why lol.
2012 in general was a bad year for Kyle. Winless in Xfinity, and missed the Chase in the Cup series.
He’s had a bad Xfintiy Season? Time to be educated
I want to forget about that season
Let’s hope Kyle Busch actually stays out of the Xfinity series like he said he would
So Kyle did learn the attitude thing from Kurt
I think it's Busch brothers thing 🤔🤔😗
I would still love to watch him and Mark Martin race.
A bit disappointed you left out that Kansas finish.
You know the one.
You should do a video on all the shit that Kurt got into, between driving for 3 different teams in 2 seasons and all the stuff on the radio, I genuinely don't fully understand what truly went on
I feel like we’ll see something similar to this in the Truck Series next season.
Looking back, 2012 was the worst season for Kyle Busch period zero truck/nationwide wins and only a cup win just missing the chase by a point if I remember correctly.
3:08 “its been plowing terribly…… he said im coming”
If I had a nickel for every time I've laughed at Kyle Busch crashing...I'd be a billionaire...probably
Without watching, I know it was his year where he wasn't driving top tier equipment.
Kurt's radio rants back then were hilarious
Back then he was more vicious than Kyle is now, must’ve been fun to watch
@@Carshtime His Darlington meltdown was epic.
@@cctitansfan IM AM [REDACTED] THERE, I AM [REDACTED] THERE!
@@Carshtime All these Mother(Redacted) behind me are laps f...king down!!!!!! F..k
Kyle Busch's 2012 NASCAR season overall was a terrible year for him
Even as a KB fan I didn’t realize how bad his seasons across all three series were
Great video!
You know I was just thinking of this like a week Ago , perfect timing
Perfectly illustrates that when he shows up to Xfinity races with an Xfinity team he is mediocre. He stays are padded due to the fact that he essentially runs a cup team in Xfinity. This is literally another version of Lewis Hamilton. The best car equals wins
In 2012 Kyle managed to only win once across all three series, and missed the chase.
I do want to point out that what KBM did in Nationwide was quite impressive. Brand new team running their own stuff and finished 8th in the owner's points. The 7 teams that beat them? JGR, Roush, 3 RCR teams, and 2 Penske teams. KBM could hardly be expected to beat those teams, even with the best drivers in the business.
After 2012 Kyle signed a new contract with JGR which included JGR basically taking over KBM's contract with the 54, which is why they continued with the Monster 54 until that contract expired, and then the car went away until recently.
What's crazy is most guys would kill to do as well as Kyle's worst year in Xfinity.
You forgot showing KB run out of gas at Kansas
As a Kyle Busch we don't talk about 2012 its gone forever your bringing back bad memories
Across all 3 series he only won 1 race
I’ll never forget that Kansas race when Kyle ran out of gas on the last lap and Stenhouse won. One of my personal favorite finishes.
That race was insane. RS was two laps down at one point!
It’s not everyday you see Kyle Busch have a terrible XFINITY series season.
Its really really rare
Talking of worst seasons, I'd suggest Lewis Hamilton's worst F1 season, 2011. His stats for the 2011 F1 season are as follows, 3 wins, 6 podiums, 16 points finishes (points go down to 10th place), one pole position, an average finish of 3.75 and only 5th in the championship, 135 points behind the champion that season, Sebastian Vettel. It was such a disappointing season from a performance perspective for him that he was behind a team mate in the standings for the first time, Jenson Button.
Nonetheless, it's a measure of the phenomenal success of Lewis Hamilton that a fifth place in the standings is his lowest placing at the end of a season
What about 2013, his first season with Mercedes?
That's a rookies dream season lol
@@Oppi_1 although he only scored one win, his finishes were better overall, finishing 4th in the championship
@@j9vlikz683 right? Like those stats make it a bad season? I'd kill for a season like that on F1 games XD
@@Alpha-nj8gn they're certainly a bad season compared to what Hamilton has had from 2007. He was much more inconsistent in 2011 than he had been before or since. A sign of how frustrated he was in 2011 was when he verbally lashed out at the race Stewards at Monaco, where after a very messy race he was asked why he kept being summoned to the Stewards, he said:
"maybe it's 'caus I'm black, that's what Ali G said,"
Even after that, when he wasn't winning in 2011, he was making uncharacteristic mistakes, getting into squabbles with drivers he (on pace) shouldn't have been racing with in theory (6 run ins with Felipe Massa) and driving like he had the stuffing knocked out of him. At the time, many in the sport criticised him for driving with his heart rather than his head and there were even some who said he's a one and done champion, but looking back, that tough season was the reality check he needed to open the floodgates for the peak of his career (six more championships in the following nine seasons, and keeping a run of at least one win in every season he's been in the sport*)
*: to the end of 2021
I think people forget how wild Kurt Busch once was, now he is a fan favorite. Amazing how much someone can change in just a few years.
3:14 That stat though. I don't see how thats even possible
2012 was kinda crazy both in cup and for me as it was a eerie sign of my near future
I could definitely see Kyle Busch motorsports coming back to the Xfinity series or even debuting in the cup series when both of the Bush brothers decide to hang it up.
This is pure torture
Wait Kyle actually had a bad season in the xfinity series
2:59 nice pit stop
That's why it's called Busch Wacking, not Busch beer Wacking.
They didnt use joe gibbs engines which was their downfall. I cant remember the name of the motor provider but alot of lower teams used them aswell
Triad??
@@willgriffin5647 yes!
@@Knifeaddictdillon isn't gaunt using those as well?
@@zenon459 seems like I've heard that before but I'm not 100% sure. They definitely arent using the same motors as JGR.

Kyle Busch's worst Xfinity season, would also happen to be the 1st season of who would be my last favorite Xfinity (Nationwide at that time) series driver's 1st year driving
*Kyle Busch fans are gonna have a bad time watching their drivers 2012 Nationwide season*
Pain looking back at it but now after Nashville no more pain
This is torture
If he stuck with it he would probably have still hit 100wins but maybe in 2022-2023
He has 101 xfinity series wins alone
Kyle in Xfinity is like dunking on 12 year olds in basketball
We're all aware of the dreadful Cup Series season Kyle Busch had last year, but the same kind of deal happened in the Xfinity series too, with only 2 wins, one of those being taken away after failing post-race inspection, and correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think he got a single Truck Series win last year either.
Everytime i see Trevor Bayne name makes me miss him racing 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺
KFB is finally retiring from Xfinity after 2021. It was going to be after his 100th win. He's only continuing now, because of sponsor obligations.
I am an European and New to Nascar. I wanted to ask why the debisions are called "Xfinity Series" instead of "Second Devision of Nascar" I mean Xfinity is the sponsor I know. But is it not confusing when talking about a series from the 90s and you don't know which devision it is?
Why is that so?
Not trying to sound like a smart aleck, but Xfinity wouldn’t put up the money if it wasn’t called the Xfinity series.
What was the music u used for the video?
god this season was miserable for me to watch
So you like Kyle Busch
Why?

1:03 "I LOOK LIKE A MONKEY FUCKIN' A FOOTBALL! FUCK EVERYBODY!! FUCK!!!" - Kurt "Raging Outlaw" Busch.
There’s really nothing praise about a man who ran cup and got 100 wins in a series because he stayed in it more than 10 years. Anyone who stays in it that long isn’t good enough to be a cup driver. So basically it’s like Tom Brady still playing college football while playing on Sundays also.
You do know he chose to keep going in the lower series right ?
So KBM raced with the 87 and 77 also?
Kyle only won 1 race that entire season across the board and that was a lucky win at Richmond in the cup and he didn't even make the chase. Although 2014 was probably his worst season in the cup, not overall.
It should be like that every season.
😂
Kyle Busch just goes easy on the Xfinity kids
I don't remember any "bad" seasons for my favorite driver Rowdy... 😀 Maybe I'm suppressing it. 🤪

Yo Link me the background music please
Huh, I thought 2015 was Kyle's worst year in the Xfinity Series.
Can’t wait to the see the comment section of this video, it’s gonna be something else.

Too bad there's no LaVar Busch
Wha... How
Thank god i didnt see the king of leeches winning everything in my first season watching NASCAR
Yeah but too bad you had to see other Cup drivers win in the lower series (doesn’t matter who)
What Year Was That
People NEED to stop bringing up other cup guys. Kyle would beat cup drivers time and time again. There has been COUNTLESS times other cup drivers would wreck or not even finish 2nd to Kyle. This year proved Kyle is only good with JGR where he dominates. Guys like chase and joey have driven for top teams and STILL got spanked by the JGR team. People really need to chill with "no one cares about Brad, Chase, Joey, etc." We've seen cup guys LOSE to Xfinity guys when Kyle ISN'T there. JGR cup guys in the 18/54 trumps cup guys in other cup rides.
