Who is Brexton Busch?

Brexton Busch is one of Kyle Busch's two children and is a racer in his own right, making waves at the Tulsa Shootout earlier this year.

Nine-year-old Brexton won the Junior Sprint Division at the event, holding back a 20-car field in the 'a-main' race to become a Golden Driller winner, with over 105 drivers having entered the Junior Sprint Division overall.

In the aftermath of that victory, Kyle Busch took to social media to celebrate his son's success.

"24 hours later, and I still couldn’t be more proud of Brexton Busch," the two-time Cup Series champion wrote.

"Biggest moment of his career and he drove a perfect race. All the hard work he and the guys put in all year paid off.

"Just a really proud dad right now."
