This week in Las Vegas auto racing

Kurt Busch is taking a test drive in the Fox Sports broadcast booth at Saturday’s Truck Series playoff race at Martinsville, Virginia. Busch, a challenger for the NASCAR Cup Series championship, suggested he’d like to get into broadcasting after he retires from driving. Brother Kyle Busch shared Halloween memories of growing up in Las Vegas. Kyle Busch California driver Jeremy Doss passed one driver on the final lap and held off another to avenge last year’s last-lap defeat to Derek Thorn in the Senator’s Cup Fall Classic at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. There’s a new book about Craig Breedlove in which the land speed king recalls surviving a 675-mph crash in Black Rock Desert north of Reno and having a song written about him by the Beach Boys. It’s called: “Ultimate Speed: The Fast Life and Extreme Cars of Racing Legend Craig Breedlove.”
