Dale Earnhardt Jr. opened up about a heartbreaking final exchange with fellow NASCAR driver Kyle Busch, just days after Busch’s sudden death at age 41. One week after the racing world was stunned by the loss, Earnhardt shared emotional details during a May 26 episode of The Dale Jr. Download podcast. According to Earnhardt, the two had been actively planning for the future right up until the day before Busch passed away. Despite being hospitalized with severe pneumonia in the hours before his death, Busch was focused on racing — texting about logistics, paint schemes, and even choosing to run the iconic Dale Jr. No. 8 for an upcoming CARS Tour race scheduled for May 30. Because their final conversation felt so ordinary, Earnhardt admitted learning of Busch’s passing was especially difficult. Still, in the days since, reflection has brought some comfort. Earnhardt shared that hearing stories from others has revealed more about who Busch was away from the track. Busch’s family confirmed the driver died May 21 after pneumonia progressed into sepsis.
