The "Outlaw" is setting no boundaries for himself.
Testing with Andretti Autosport last Spring at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, the world of auto racing got it's first hint that Kurt Busch would drive an Indy car.
Now, that's a reality.
Becoming the fourth driver to race all 1,100 miles (both the Coca Cola 600 (NASCAR), and the (Indianapolis 500 (Indy Car Racing)), Tony Stewart, Robby Gordon, and Mario Andretti being the others, Kurt Busch will definitely race both races in the same day.
Tony Stewart is Kurt's team owner at Stewart-HAAS Racing.
"I want to pop quiz everyone who's done (the double) to learn as much as I can", Busch said, "To just
be able to anticipate what's next and have things checked off your list so that you're mentally prepared. I have to thank Stewart-Haas Racing for giving me the chance to fulfill this dream, to challenge myself in motor sports and to do something special in this day and age."

"We're set up to do five cars, and this actually adds to our program," Andretti said, who Kurt will be driving for in the Indy 500. "It will be a good effort."
Be sure to watch Kurt "The Outlaw" Busch in the Indianapolis 500 and the Coca Cola 600 on May 25, 2014.
