For months, Kyle Busch had wanted to make this night happen.
He had talked about the idea with excitement, worked behind the scenes to bring it together and envisioned a night that celebrated the kind of racing he never stopped loving, no matter how far his career took him.
On Friday night at Bowman Gray Stadium, the Kyle Busch Invitational finally became real.
Kyle wasn't there to see it.
Instead, three months after his death at age 41, Samantha Busch stood on the grid with their 11-year-old son, Brexton, and tried to put into words what it meant to see one of her husband's ideas come to life without him.
