NASCAR Cup Series driver Kyle Busch may have a second racing prodigy on his hands. 

While his 9-year-old son, Brexton, dominated a junior sprints division the past few seasons, the elder Busch may soon start mentoring his 2-year-old daughter, Lennix. 

Samantha Busch, the children’s mother, posted a video on Instagram Saturday of Lennix turning her first dirt track laps at Millbridge Speedway in Salisbury, North Carolina. Brexton appeared riding his dirt bike. 

“Lenni’s first laps at Millbridge,” Samantha Busch posted. “Looks like we might have another racer in the family!” 

Recently honored as a Golden Driller, Brexton captured the Junior Sprint Division (A-Main) during the Tulsa (Oklahoma) Shootout. 

As his children continue honing their racing skills, Kyle Busch will attempt to shake off a disappointing 2024 campaign in which he failed to win a race for the first time since 2004. 

BetOnline Sportsbook favors Busch, a future hall of famer who compiled 63 Cup triumphs, ending his winless skid in a hurry. Along with Brad Keselowski, Busch was listed with +1100 odds to visit Victory Lane at Daytona International Speedway.

Below, we’ll preview the top storylines and the driver odds heading into the season-opening Daytona 500.

2025 NASCAR Cup Series Daytona 500 Storylines

  •  The Daytona 500 will mark AJ Allmendinger’s return to the Cup Series. This time he doesn’t have to share the ride. Allmendinger, who drove the No. 16 Chevrolet on a part-time basis last season, returns to the team as a full-time driver. BetOnline Sportsbook listed Allmendinger with +5000 odds to capture the 67th annual event. 
  • Noah Gragson, who is joining his third organization in three seasons, is preparing for his Front Row Motorsports debut at Daytona. Gragson will take over the No. 4 Ford and drew +4000 odds to claim the “Great American Race.” 
  • How will new Spire Motorsports driver Justin Haley respond to having veteran crew chief Rodney Childers guide the No. 7 Chevrolet team? Childers, who signed a multi-year deal, has helped his previous drivers to 40 wins. Haley, who won one Cup race as a rookie in 2019, did not record a top-five finish in 36 starts last season. Haley’s odds to win at Daytona were set at +5000.
