Kyle Busch to drive for Joe Gibbs

August 6th, 2007 by Tank

Having been bumped out of his job at Hendricks by Junior, Busch the Younger will now take JJ Yeley’s ride in the number 18 car at Joe Gibbs Racing. Definitely an upgrade for Gibbs, though now Tony Stewart will be only the second biggest head case in his employ. With two very young drivers in Busch and Denny Hamlin, and Tony Stewart likely to drive for at least a few more years, one assumes Gibbs will expand to four cars within a year or two to accomodate either Brad Coleman or, more likely, Joey Logano, at least once Logano is old enough to actually get a driver’s license.
