Bad Seasons: Kurt Busch 2006 

Watching this video with “Diary of Jane” playing in the background makes me reminisce about playing NASCAR 07.

Bad Seasons: That single season Kurt was in the 51

I see, since it was 2006 that was Kurt's bad season and Breaking Benjamin was in NASCAR 07, really clever Darian, really clever

That moment when you get a DUI, and get sponsored by Miller Lite the very next season. Irony.

Thank you for making this one and telling that Roush to Penske storyline

Moral of the story, David Stremme was absolute trash.

Goodness gracious....I had no idea Kurt Busch's 2006 season was that bad. These Bad Seasons videos are really keeping me informed, Darian

One thing people have underrated over the years is how awesome of chemistry Kurt had with the #97 team. His Penske performance was a step behind what he did at Roush, and he's been with building teams since (took over Newman's car at SHR, and is now driving for Ganassi which aside from one wonder year with Jamie Mac nine years ago, hasn't had a lot of success this decade). I will say this, the timing of Kurt getting released from Penske couldn't have been worse. They had just gotten to where they were a weekly winning contender again, and Kurt had come off of 3 straight two-win seasons and Chase appearances. Brad K won the championship in Penske's first year without Kurt, and Logano later joined Penske and has had a lot of wins and a championship of his own.

1:41 Am I the only one to notice the Sheriff busting Kurt was the now world-famous Asshole Joe Arpaio?

Did he really sign a contract with Penske that broke his Roush contract? I thought Roush let him go because of the verbal altercation with the police officer in Phoenix

The song is giving me NASCAR 07 flashbacks

Stunned to realize you only have 13 thousand subscribers - this is one of the best motorsports channels there is.

5 years later in 2011, Kurt Busch gets fired from Penske and moves to Phoenix Racing as a result for 2012.

Love me some Breaking Benjamin.

Who else misses the original NASCAR on NBC??

Kurt had so much success, so early. It was too much too soon. Now I would love to see this grumpy old vet compete for a championship.

im very happy you played Diary of Jane the hit song for that years Nascar Race

Bad Seasons Suggestion: Jeremy Mayfield (2000). Two wins which did look promising, but an injury at Indianapolis + a string of six straight DNF's with Penske-Kranefuss + 11 DNF's at the year's end. Fourth-most laps lead the entire season, but terrible luck leading to a bad 24th place points season.

Might of had a bad season but that dodge blue duece twisted sister generation car was beautiful

Great choice in background music.

you know its real when breaking benjimin is playing in the backround 🤘

He just had awful luck and a lot of crashes that season. 2009 he was amazing.

He's 7th in the 2019 Points right now

Penske wasn't in the right direction when Rusty Wallace called it quits. Rusty only won once in his last 4 years, and yeah, he was at the tail end of his career, but he made the Chase in his last year. He still had SOME left in the tank, but the team wasn't as good as they were in the early to mid 90's. Kurt was younger and although he was winning every year, the #2 was still behind the teams that were contending every week. Penske didn't help matters by making questionable hires like Sam Hornish and David Stremme (Brad Keselowski had to go through the same thing as Kurt and rebuild the #12 team after Stremme's presence probably destroyed that car's team morale). But Kurt did keep working with the team behind the scenes to get them back to contending again, even if he did lose his temper on the radio. Kurt's efforts behind the scenes helped, as from 2009 - 2011 he won at least twice and made the Chase all of those years.

2008 was just as bad for him, if not worse.

Love the NASCAR 07 throwback in the background.

He had a bad 2006 season, but it's not the worst one he's ever had. 2001 & 2012 were his worst ones ever. The only positive about his first year at Penske was winning 6 poles & winning a race at Bristol along with a couple of Xfinity wins, one of them in his debut.

He probably woulda won another title if he stayed with Roush for a lil while longer.

aaaand once again, thank you guys so much for watching, this ya boy Cool Whip, catch ya next time

Love the music choice

Diary of Jane in the background because I have been playing NASCAR 07 a lot right now an NASCAR 07 by EA Sports was completed in around the time of the Daytona 500 in February 2006

Nothing is more '06 than the diary of Jane

And then there was the 2008 & 2012 seasons

I can't help but sing the lyrics of Diary of Jane in the background. Ah NASCAR 07 memories....

Good lord. I know he was immature, but this car was awful that year. Bad season for Penske in general, not just Kurt.

NASCAR 07 vibes in the beginning

That cop sounded corrupt AF

My all time favorite car, tho!

NASCAR Busts: Erik Darnell

Lets face it, Joe Arpaio was/is a pile of S as far as a sheriff. Kurt Busch though showed his ego and antics. I surprised he still around. Roush getting the last laugh was definitely well deserved. Lotta people forget what happened. I haven't

Hey BFM, I heard that you guys are having a hangout at Bristol this year and I’m going to the race also and would like to meet you guys. Do you know exactly where it’ll be and at what time?

Sheriff Joe Arpaio got his spotlight lol

Why did Chip Ganassi replace Sterling Marlin with David Stremme? Why did Roger Penske eventually replace Ryan Newman with David Stremme?

Bad Seasons: Travis Kvapil 2006

Diary of Jane😍

A rare occasion where a driver gets a win in a bad season.

Jaime McMurray could have been Rusty Wallace's replacement at Penske had Kurt Busch not appointed

3:27 Wait did he just say Eva Braun?

Bad Seasons: Terry Labonte (2001-02, & or 2004)

Kvapil should promote to 2 Kurt would swap with McMurray to CGR in 2006 with 40 Coors Light Dodge instead of David Stremme he competes 4th part time car numbered 30 or 39 and Busch Series full time with number 40.

Bad Seasons for 2006: Dale Jarrett Sterling Marlin Ken Schrader Jamie McMurray Greg Biffle

2006 doesn't seem like it was good for anyone in a Dodge unless you were Kasey Kahne

Weirdly Enough, Once Kurt decides he's done with NASCAR, since he's still good friends with Roger Penske and Chip Gannasi I could see him racing IndyCars, I know he did the "Double Duty" back in 2014, and I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if he wants to race IndyCars...

I miss Benny Parsons and Wally Dallenbach.... I have no idea how to spell his name I apologize.😁😁

Kurt was framed.

he at least won Bristol

Bad Season: Greg Biffle 2011

And I thought his 2001 season was his worst season

In 2006 Kurt Bucsh his Stats Look at this 1 win 7 top 5's 12 top 10's and Average finsh 19.4 finished 16th in the standings

NASCAR Busts: Reed Sorenson

Penske was so bad at this time they managed to ruin prime Ryan Newman and Kurt Busch careers...

So Kurt Busch ran a stop sign with a DUI??? Hmm. Sounds like Brian France in disguise

Do championship season Kyle Busch

Jimmie Johnson 2006 Championship

What about 2012???
