Las Vegas native Kyle Busch recorded his 200th NASCAR Series win earlier this year. Critics complain about Busch still competing in this division, but he's still one of the most iconic drivers in NASCAR history. Keep in mind that the only other driver to notch 200 wins in NASCAR is seven-time Cup Series Champion Richard Petty, who is currently enshrined in the Hall of fame. That has to be a good sign for Kyle Busch's eventual Hall of fame nomination. He could even end up being a first-ballot Hall of farmer depending on how his career ends.

“Feels just like number one. Feels just like yesterday,” a jubilant Busch said after amassing 200 career wins. ” … Just awesome. Just awesome. To win 200, I mean, whatever it means, it means a lot to me. It means a lot to all my guys, everybody at Joe Gibbs Racing. It’s an amazing opportunity to drive for Joe Gibbs. I cherish every minute of it, love it always.”

Biggest wins of Kyle Busch's career:

  • 2019 Cup Series championship race at Phoenix Raceway.
  • 2016 Brickyard 400 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway
