UPDATE: Charlotte Motor Speedway will host a Celebration of Life for Kyle Busch on Friday, Oct. 9.
The ceremony will take place at the start/finish line of the 1.5-mile track in Concord, North Carolina, following the conclusion of the Craftsman Truck Series Chase race presented by Mobil 1.
The ceremony will be free for fans to attend at the track. Fans who bought tickets for the Truck Series race will also be welcome to stay and move toward the start/finish line for the Celebration of Life as the NASCAR community celebrates the late Busch and his legacy through stories, memories, iconic moments and the impact he made on the sport that epitomized the nickname “Rowdy.”
Busch’s widow, Samantha, will be onstage to remember her husband.
During the ceremony, ten of Busch’s most iconic race cars will be on display and a drone show will take place at the end of the ceremony.
