How did Kyle Busch and Samantha first meet?

Back in 2007, when Samantha was a student at Purdue University, she was sent to work for Chevrolet at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway by her promotional model agency. It was her first time on any racetrack.

Over that weekend in Indianapolis, Samantha was approached by a lady and asked if she wanted to go for a ride in a Chevy Impala, an offer that she couldn't refuse.

Samantha then told about Kyle Busch's side of the story in a post on her Instagram account.

"He saw me from afar and asked his pr lady to ask if I wanted a ride! So needless to say I hopped in the car and the first thing I said when I saw him in his Chevy tee and ice cold car was 'wow you got a way better assignment then I did'. He looked at me funny assuming I knew who he was and we were off," she said.

"I did most of the talking, big surprise, and then invited him to hang out with a group of us going out that night to which he declined bc he had to work. Little did I know he had a truck race. So I thought that was the end of that until Mr. Shy had someone ask me for my number," Samantha added.

Here is the rest of the story that Samantha penned on her Instagram account:

After this interaction, the couple started texting for a few months before meeting each other and the rest in her words "is history".
