NASCAR is a sport of fast-paced cars with nail-biting races, and behind every driver's success story is the unwavering support of their partner. Although, while supporting their husbands on the track, the wives have carved careers of their own, ranging from entrepreneurship to fashion. Samantha Busch, the wife of two-time Cup Series champion Kyle Busch is one such example.
