Budd and Tillis were joined by Catherine Cortez Masto (D, Nev.) and Jacky Rosen (D-Nev.) from Busch\u2019s home state. The resolution was introduced to honor Busch, an award-winning NASCAR driver who died late last month<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cBusch had 19 consecutive seasons with a NASCAR Cup Series win (2005 through 2023), the longest of any driver. \u2026 [He] rounded out his career as the winningest driver across NASCAR\u2019s 3 national series, with a record of 234 victories, including 63 Cup Series wins, 102 O\u2019Reilly Auto Parts Series wins, and 69 CRAFTSMAN Truck Series wins,\u201d the resolution stated.<\/p>\n

\u201cBusch earned the respect of both opposing drivers and fans through his commitment to providing thrilling entertainment to NASCAR crowds with his driving style. \u2026 He embraced his role as a champion driver and devoted father, proudly mentored and coached his son, Brexton, who began his own journey in motorsports, and helped foster a passion for racing in the next generation.\u201d<\/p>\n

The resolution now goes to the House of Representatives.<\/p>\n

Busch was a NASCAR driver with an exceptional track record. He was the winningest driver across NASCAR\u2019s national series and a two-time Cup Series champion. Busch had 234 victories across NASCAR\u2019s three national series and was named one of NASCAR\u2019s 75 greatest drivers in 2023.<\/p>\n
