A busy weekend

Race car drivers are usually a busy lot, but if you look at what Kyle Busch is up to this weekend, you have to wonder if there are a few timing belts loose in his drive train.
Check out what's up with this guy's schedule.

For starters, the younger Busch brother is running in all three NASCAR series this weekend at Phoenix - the Casino Arizona 150 trucks race on Friday, the Arizona.Travel 200 Busch race on Saturday and the Checker Auto Parts 500 on Sunday. But after the Busch race, Busch will immediately board a plane and take the short flight to Las Vegas to run the Bullring's season finale in his Super Late Model car, a 140-lap main event.
That's nuts, if you ask me, but I don't drive for a living.
Busch was at LVMS on Tuesday to practice. Big brother Kurt was also there for a charity event, but the surprise guest was Smash Mouth lead singer Steve Harwell. Harwell will also be competing at the Bullring with Kyle Busch and the rest of the field, which makes getting tickets a priority for music fans, race fans, or whoever else wants to spend a good Saturday night to fill a need for speed.
