Kurt Busch mentions Tony Stewart & Robby Gordon at media event

Kurt Busch answered questions about the upcoming double today and talked about the differences in the cars but when asked if other drivers should attempt the double he made a clear statement. "I'm a racer. Tony Stewart is a racer. Robby Gordon is a racer. Motorsports is our family. When you think of Memorial Weekend, of course you think of our fabulous verterans, but it's a big weekend for motorsports. It starts with Manaco, then the Indy 500 and ends with 600 miles at Charlotte. It's huge for motorsports and the fans. To do the double requires alot of determination. It requires months of preperation for the body. I've done lots of running, material arts and special diets to prepare myself so I don't have fatigue in my arms or cramps in my legs. I've had lengthy discussions with Tony and Robby on many details just to prepare myself for the schedule and demands.

Jamie McMurray - “My take on what Kurt is doing as a race fan is that it’s awesome,” Sprint Cup driver Jamie McMurray said. “I can’t wait to get up Sunday morning, turn the Indy 500 on and watch Kurt’s day. We can all remember Tony (Stewart) and Robby Gordon did it and watching those guys to see how their races goes, them getting on the helicopter – Kurt is actually flying on the plane that I fly on every weekend back down here – and then to show up and race here. I’m excited about it, and I hope other fans – whether you’re and IndyCar fan or a NASCAR fan – are excited to watch his whole day as well. I think it’s really cool what he’s doing.”

Ok so I'll be the 1st to ask it . When we gonna see Kurt in a SST ? He's a Vegas boy so offroad should be in his blood . I think he'd do pretty good . Kinda remember seeing him and Kyle bouncing around in a sand car a few yrs back .

Get the idea that no Cup drivers will cross that bridge...........it's political.........trust me it's is. And if ever they do I'll admit I was wrong.....at the time and that times have changed .......

Yeah I gotta agree . Old Brian " the nazi " France wouldn't allow his drivers to do it . Even Kurt .
On another note I'll say Kurt gets top 10s in both races .

Didn't Kyle race an off road truck with Traxxas a few years back?

Was just a testing deal . They sponsored his nascar truck .

Now only if he could do Monaco and make it a triple. Just need a supersonic jet plane.

hahahahah

LMAO!

Got to wonder why Ryan Hunter-Reay doesn't help Robby out and carry some Speed Energy logos?

Instead of drinking the milk, he could whipped out a can of Speed.
