Not a fan of his, but very sad for such a young man. Prayers to his family.

Never was a fan of either Kyle or Kurt but never wished this on him. RIP Rowdy!

RIP KFB I liked his edge i also liked that he raced any thing on wheels and was getting into the dirt racing. Seeing him racing with his kid you got to see another side . Brother got to work with him for a bit and he demanded a lot but was a wheel man.

I didn’t like him for years because of how cocky he was. But the last 5-6 years I actually started pulling for him to win. He will definitely be missed !

I told my cousin today every day after 40 is a blessing. It was like I had a little premonition. RIP Kyle.

Absolutely heart breaking, I wish it wasn't true. I always enjoyed him because he brought life into NASCAR. His talent was undeniable, a person can argue that he was the most pure talent driver ever in the series.

He was a cocky young Lad when he first started, but the boy backed up what he said and did.
One of the best, if not the best, behind the wheel. He could drive the wheels off anything.
Much too young to have died.
RIP Rowdy and prayers for him and his family!

Wasn't a huge fan of his but sad to see at such a young age and beautiful family. He was a great asset to the racing circuit.

I think it was a night race @ Bristol and somewhere along the way the car gets a few wrinkles. They replay his conversation w/crew chief a few min later and I’ll have to paraphrase because I don’t recall the entire sequence word for word but I do recall KB’s comment:

Crew Chief: “How’s the car?”

KB, Direct quote: “We’ve won with worse”.

Hearing that, I was instantly much more interested in seeing KB succeed.

Contrast that w/what I remember most about Jimmy Johnson after he kissed the wall @ one of the higher speed tracks:

Jimmy it whining about the car being undrivable and Chad Knaus answers back on the radio:

“Jimmy, you’re the one who adjusted on it last”.

Sad......Big fan of Kyle's. Closest we to Dale Sr was Kyle's Busch. Drove the hell out of anything that had wheels!
