In his recent interview with siriusxm the driver revealed how he didn’t expect the deal to go through. “Spire was involved in the conversation and they wanted to buy the KBM Stuff and use it and they wanted the updated stuff”
Lacking the facilities Kyle Busch threw out a bluff – “It’s all not happening, if you want the truck just buy the whole thing and do it yourself!” Little did he know that Justin Marks was game for this.
And two weeks later, “Okay we’ll take it”. Justin Marks abrupt interest in the team found Kyle Busch in a tricky situation and he ultimately gave in.
Giving up his blood and sweat, Kyle Busch had a bittersweet experience but shows no regret now. He has even revealed plans for a “New KBM” – Brexton Busch motorsports as his son prepares to take up the mantle.
