Kyle Busch recently shared a snippet of his new project on his Instagram

NASCAR is launching three new shows - NASCAR Inside the Playoffs, NASCAR Daily and Drop the Jack.

The driver for Richard Childress Racing, Kyle Busch recently shared a snippet of his new project on his Instagram after he missed the opportunity to qualify for the 2024 NASCAR playoffs. During the 2024 playoffs, NASCAR will be adding three more shows to its kitty and Busch will feature in the new episodes of "NASCAR Inside the Playoffs."

 

Why was Busch not able to qualify for the 2024 NASCAR playoffs?

 

The 39-year-old won two Cup Series back in 2015 and 2019 but was not able to qualify for the 2024 NASCAR playoffs as he had close calls in the last two races in Daytona and Darlington. Busch was leading in Daytona but a late push from Harrison Burton saw his downfall.

 

It was again a close call in Darlington as he missed the playoffs by 0.361 seconds behind the race winner Chase Briscoe.

The new venture - "NASCAR Inside the Playoffs"

 

In a story post on Instagram, Busch unveiled the snippets from the new studio program "NASCAR Inside the Playoffs." He will feature in the first two episodes alongside hosts Shannon Spake and Steve Letarte.

 

The show is all about a detailed analysis of the 2024 NASCAR playoffs as former drivers get to share their insights.

 

Two other NASCAR shows

 

The other two shows that NASCAR is coming out with are "NASCAR Daily" and "Drop the Jack." Spake will get to host the podcast - "NASCAR Daily" which will cover breaking news and exclusive interviews.

 

The main focus of "Drop the Jack" will be how life is on the track with the crew members of the pit and other NASCAR veterans. The production of these new three shows will take place at NASCAR's new studio in Concord, North Carolina.

 

A streak that he would like to keep going

 

In a long career of 19 years which is still going on, Kyle Busch has won at least one race in every season. With just 10 races left, he is determined to keep the record going and said, "No question. Absolutely. We already passed the Daytona 500 and checked that box. So, the next box to check, highest on the list is to get a win this year to just continue that streak."

 

Having finished second in the last two races he took part in, Kyle is hoping that he could win at Atlanta and if that happens his streak would go onto 20 straight years.
