#41-Kurt Busch will be inducted into the Southern Nevada Sports Hall of Fame on Friday at Orleans Arena in Las Vegas while being surrounded by family and friends in the city where he grew up. The ceremony comes five days after the Durango High School graduate won his second race of the NASCAR Sprint Cup season, claiming the rain-shortened event Sunday at Michigan International Speedway. “This year has been so rewarding,” said Busch, who is driving the #41 Chevy for Stewart-Haas Racing. “I’ve been executing well with my race preparation and forecasting well what’s going to happen during the race.” Busch will be joined by boxer Mike Tyson, former NFL quarterback Glenn Carano, golf pro Joe Kelly and rodeo coach Ric Griffith as members of the Class of 2015. Busch has won 27 times in NASCAR’s elite division and ranks No. 26 on the all-time victory list. Two spots ahead of him is his younger brother Kyle, who has 29 victories.(Las Vegas Review Journal)(6-18-2015)
