Kyle Busch and his son Brexton shared the stage during a recent fan interaction at Bristol Motor Speedway. The father-son duo disclosed their favorite memories together, the video of which is available on the latter's Instagram page.

From a young age, Brexton has immersed himself in the world of racing. The youngster has competed and won in several categories, including Quarter Midget, Junior Sprint, Winged Micro Sprint Car, and Bandolero.

Despite his busy schedule with NASCAR's national series, Kyle, the two-time Cup Series champion, has been taking out time to help his son with the basics of racing. Apart from racing, the father-son duo also spends time engaging in several other fun activities.

During a fan interaction ahead of the Bass Pro Shops Night Race at Bristol, Brexton and Kyle shared a few of their most cherished memories.

"Oh yeah, the silly string in 2019. When my dad (Kyle Busch) won his second championship, me and mom sprayed silly string all over him," Brexton said.

Meanwhile, Kyle Busch recalled a different memory from the same night.

"That was fun. I'd say that one's very high on my list, I'd say the other one that's really cool too was just before that, earlier in the championship celebration, was him coming to the racetrack. Being on the racetrack, being able to take the window out and go around and kind of do a victory lap with Brexton for the championship there and bringing that home in Homestead. So that was cool too," he said.

The aforementioned interaction was shared on Brexton's Instagram page. Here's a look at the post, captioned:

Spraying my dad with silly string was so much fun! Do I need to bring it back??🤪

"It puts a smile on my face," - Kyle Busch explains why people's attention to Brexton's racing development makes him happy

Apart from being a NASCAR racer, Kyle Busch is also the father of a budding racecar driver. During a recent episode of the Kenny Conversation podcast, the Las Vegas-based driver expressed his enthusiasm for people's growing interest in his son, Brexton's development as a racer.

"sometimes when I’m able to go to these media availabilities or just be at the racetrack, you know everybody’s asking me, ‘Well, how’s Brexton doing?’ ‘What’s he racing this weekend?’ And you know, it just, it puts a smile on my face. It makes me happy to just know that people are paying attention to him… and how good he is, and how his development is coming along,” Busch said (21:28 onwards).

While his son has a long career ahead of him in racing, NASCAR legend Kenny Wallace highlighted the fact that Kyle Busch is still one of the best in the sport before asking Busch what he is anticipating in his future endeavors.

"Daytona 500 obviously is top of the list. That's number one. I want to be able to win the Daytona 500 and have that accomplishment checked off," Busch said in response (42:41 onwards).

Kyle is currently ranked 20th in the driver's championship, having secured ten Top 10 finishes and five Top 5 finishes
