Kyle Busch and Samantha met in 2007 while she was pursuing psychology studies at Purdue University. She married the two-time NASCAR Cup Series champion in 2010. The couple have two children together: their son Brexton Busch (born in 2015), who has already started racing and their daughter Lennix (born in 2022).

Samanth is often seen supporting her husband on the track. This week was no different, as she was present at the Darlington raceway to cheer Kyle Busch on.

The first caution of the race occurred at lap 4 of 293 of the Goodyear 400. Kyle Larson, driving the #5 for Hendrick Motorsports, brought out the caution when he was exiting turn 2 and made contact with the inside wall on the backstretch. Around this time, Kyle Busch was heard liking the car on the radio. Samantha Busch shared the exchange on X.

"First caution of the race Kyle radios in to say the car feels pretty good", she wrote.
