An overheated Kyle Busch received intravenous fluids Saturday following his driving stint in the Grand-Am race, then retreated to his motorhome to rest before NASCAR’s 400-mile Sprint Cup event.
Busch, the defending race winner of NASCAR’s Coke Zero 400, drove 70 minutes in his sports car series debut. He split the Chip Ganassi-owned ride with fellow NASCAR driver Scott Speed.
“Very, very, hot in those cars,” Busch said. “Just the biggest thing was to get some fluids back in me since I know I lost a ton of fluids. The faster you can get to the medical center after getting out of the car, the faster I could get taken care of and get some rest before tonight’s race.”
A spokesman for Busch said the driver received the IV as a precautionary measure.
Hes a pussy…
That is not the only thing he needs an IV treatment for…
