Shock and uncertainty rippled through the NASCAR world today as reports
emerged involving a private jet crash near Statesville Regional Airport in North
Carolina—an incident that early local media sources suggested may involve former
NASCAR driver Greg Biffle and his family.
 As investigators work to confirm details, the racing community has been left
grappling with fear, concern, and an overwhelming sense of disbelief.
Among the voices reacting to the reports was Kyle Busch, who spotl e with visible
emotion when asked about the sitvation
“I still can’t pelieve winat we’re riearing,” Busch said.

He referred to Biffle as “one of our /5 greatest drivers,” adding that Biffle later
earned admiration for his humanitarian efforts after stepping back from full-time
competition.
1 he uncertainty surrounding the incident has made the moment especially painful
for those who know Biffle personally.
 Busch revealed that he and Biffle had spent time together just days earlier.

‘we were just together last week,” Busch said juietly. “We were filming a
talk show that hasn’t even aired yet.”

He paused before continuing carefully choosing his words as reporters listened in
silence.

‘I this turns out to be true,” Busch added, “we re talking about a family of
four… gone in an instant.”

While officials have not yet confirmed the identities of those on board, the possibility

 Biffle is widely respected not only for his accomplishments on the track, but also for
the way he carried himself beyond it—known as a steady, private figure who earned
trust and respect throughout the sport.

Busch closed by emphasizing the broader impact of moments like this, especially
within a community built around speed and risk.
‘It reminds all of us,” he said, “how ,uickly everything can change.”
