Kurt Busch has a court date scheduled for September following his arrest for DWI, reckless driving, and speeding in North Carolina earlier this week. The arrest occurred in Iredell County, where he was pulled over for going 63mph in a 45mph zone in Mooresville around 11:30pm on Tuesday. Busch displayed signs of intoxication such as “red glassy eyes” and a strong alcohol odor on his breath, admitting to drinking before driving. Reports indicate Busch had a blood alcohol concentration of 0.17 and was released from the county detention center after signing a court appearance promise for Sept. 19. Despite expressing disappointment in himself and apologizing to his family, racing community, and fans, Busch plans to cooperate with authorities to address the situation and improve safety in the county. Following his retirement from NASCAR last season and a recent concussion, Busch remains involved with 23XI Racing in a consulting and mentorship capacity.
