Kyle Busch (photo credit: Todd Warshaw/Getty Images for NASCAR)Kyle Busch drives the No. 18 M&M’s Toyota for Joe Gibbs Racing. He married his longtime girlfriend Samantha Sarcinella on New Year’s Eve last year and the word from Kyle (via Twitter) is that their wedding will be featured on The Style Network in March of this year.

I interviewed Kyle during Champion’s Week in Las Vegas last year and some of his responses kinda surprised me, especially the profession other than his own that he’d like to attempt.


What is your favorite word? Well, I have a favorite saying, but not a word. “It doesn’t surprise me”

What is your least favorite word? Second

What turns you on? I mean, is that like, I gotta get context there. *laughter* (Me: Whatever you think) Hmm, racing. That’s easy.

What turns you off? People that aren’t true to themselves.

What sound or noise do you love? The roar of an engine

What sound or noise do you hate? The skid of tires

What is your favorite curse word? Uh, hold on. What’s that one? Oh, I can’t say that one. Uhm, “fudge.”

What profession other than your own would you like to attempt? Crew chief. Something still in racing.

What profession would you not like to do? A 9-to-5 corporate desk job.

If Heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the Pearly Gates? I’d like for him to tell me that I did a great job while living his path for me.
