25 NASCAR drivers to consider as getaway drivers for that one last heist

Kyle Busch

In short order, Kyle Busch has established himself as one of NASCAR’s hottest names and also quite the wild card. We all know the story of how he suffered that terrible crash at Daytona, battled back having to even learn how to walk again, and then came to the racetrack and won himself a NASCAR Cup Series championships. That’s one of the great feel-good stories in all of motor racing. It’s also great if you’re looking for a getaway driver, because you’d know that even if he somehow got hurt, he’d be able to pick himself up and not only make it back into the car, but still drive at an elite level.

He’s also established himself as a bit of a NASCAR ninja. Busch has a recent habit of popping up around fans when they least expect it, whether it’s being beside them in traffic or sneaking up behind them at an M&M’s display. How valuable would that be for a getaway driver? He’d be able to appear whenever you needed him, wherever he needed to be, and probably show up totally unnoticed. Since the whole point of having a getaway driver is not to get caught, Kyle Busch’s powers of being undetected are a priceless skill.

Like his brother Kurt, Kyle Busch is not afraid of getting into a fight whether it’s a verbal or physical altercation. That means he’d certainly hang tough if the cops turned up the heat on your heist crew. Between that and his ability to rebound from the toughest of circumstances, Kyle’s staying power merits some serious consideration.
