Kyle Busch has a pretty decent NASCAR record at Charlotte Motor Speedway. He’s won 16 races across NASCAR's three national series, including a win in 2017 Monster Energy NASCAR All-Star Race.

He also comes to Charlotte as the defending race winner of the next week’s Coca-Cola 600. So, to say the Joe Gibbs Racing driver has Charlotte figured out, might be an understatement.

"I don’t know what exactly suited me," Busch said Friday of the 1.5-mile speedway. "It took me forever to win here. I only have one Cup win, let's all remember that: One. But past that, Truck, Xfinity, it's been really, really good for me; we've been really fast here. It would certainly be nice to continue to keep up the winning ways in the Cup cars and win another All-Star Race here and win us another 600 (next Sunday). I don't know what's allowed me to run well here and win races here."

Busch was part of NASCAR’s All-Star Race 11 times before winning two years ago.

"I always dreamed of being able to win an All-Star Race," Busch said. "Finally, was able to get it done myself."

And he hopes to repeat that Saturday night and add another 600 win to his Charlotte resume next Sunday. Despite all his success at Charlotte however, there is one thing that perhaps Busch isn’t looking forward to at Charlotte: the fall race when the track will once again become the Roval, a 17-turn, 2.28 mile a hybrid road course in the infield.

When asked Friday which configuration he preferred, Busch was quick and to the point.

“The oval,” he said. “The Roval is stupid.”

His dislike of the road course could be in large part due to his first race last fall when he crashed out and finished 32nd.

Busch will roll off second in Saturday night’s NASCAR All-Star race; which will be held on the traditional 1.5-mile oval.
