Kyle Busch: "I would like to think we can go to Darlington and run in the.."

Kyle Busch is ready for Darlington and the first challenge in the playoffs. Although it is difficult to predict what may happen, considering the events of this season, Busch seems to be an optimist. His team previously had good results on this track, so they expect the same this time.

“We’ve had good speed with our Toyota group on the mile-and-a-half and 2-mile tracks. We’ve been good at those places. Under a mile, we’ve struggled a bit, and on road courses, we’ve struggled a bit, as well.

I would like to think we have a good shot at Darlington this weekend. We were running in the top-four the last time there, and a car in front of us blew a tire and crashed, and we got caught up in that,” Kyle Busch said.

His experience and quality will certainly be important factors in the fight for first place. Busch believes they could be right at the top. “So don’t need any of that this time around. I would like to think we can go to Darlington and run in the top-five for sure and maybe even improve our program from the last time we were there and go out there and get a win with our M&M’S Camry,”.

Playoff races can bring even more excitement. Drivers are aware of roles and importance, so sometimes they don't choose ways to achieve the desired result. “Definitely. I feel like things do amp up, and (drivers) race each other a lot harder, and there’s a lot more on the line.

You have to pick and choose your battles, but when you get into these playoff races, and even more so in the cutoff races, every position is a point, and every point counts as you try to navigate and get through each round,” says Kyle Busch.
