Kyle Busch fans of the world it's your moment to shine. For the next 3 months you can proudly proclaim that your driver is a Champion. He might not be the 2009 Sprint Cup Series Champion but being named the Nationwide Series Champion is nothing to be ashamed of.

Whether he was piloting the NOS Energy Drink or Z-Line Designs Toyota Kyle was the class of the field for 2009 earning three poles, nine wins, and an impressive 30 top ten finishes in 35 races.
