"The final six months of Kyle Busch's 2007 Sprint Cup easily could be compared to the television program 'Survivor.'

Busch is young and brash, never seemed to mesh with his tribe and ultimately was voted off the island.

In NASCAR terms, Busch, 22, didn't fit into the Hendrick Motorsports mold, at times struggling to fit in with superstar teammates Jimmie Johnson and Jeff Gordon. So when Dale Earnhardt Jr. announced he was leaving Dale Earnhardt Inc. for Hendrick, it was Busch who had his flame put out.

Two weeks into the new season, however, Busch is the ratings winner, not Earnhardt. Busch, now driving for Joe Gibbs Racing, leads the series standings for the first time in his career as he heads to Las Vegas Motor Speedway for Sunday's UAW-Dodge 400. It's a big weekend for Busch, a native of Las Vegas."
