    Little known fact Kurt Busch is an alien time traveler.

    He AND Juan Pablo did really well today. Good race guys.

    The race commentators were night and day better then nascar. A much better run race. Red flag at the end so the race could be raced to the finish. Unlike the nascar method of a 22 LAP CAUTION in the nationwide CHAMPIONSHIP RACE last season. Hey, how's is that Austin Dillon doing by the way, have not seen anything about him.

    He had a helicopter waiting in the infield for him to fly him to the airport and took a waiting jet. This is all coordinated to get him between the two fast enough to take part in the race.

    between a waiting helicopter to a nearby airport

    and a private leer jet and another helicopter waiting for him to fly him to the Charlotte Motor Speedway can be done in 90 minutes

    what I want to see one day is a driver race Monaco then Indy then Charlotte

    for that a Military Jet would be needed from Monaco and Indy

    That would be something but next to impossible to pull off

    I'd be tempted to say he had Kyle drive him......

    I was at the Coca Cola 600 yesterday and they said that as soon as he was released from the infield care center at the Indianapolis 500 (just to make sure that he was hydrated and all) that he was getting on some special jet that only took 47 minutes to get from Indy into the Charlotte Airport, and from the Charlotte Airport he was getting on a helicopter that took him directly to the Charlotte Motor Speedway

    It's approximately 580 miles from Indianapolis Speedway to Charlotte Motor Speedway. Many airplanes can travel over 600 mph, so that adds up to about a 1 hour flight give or take a little.

    He drove there really, really fast.

    Have you ever heard of an airplane.
