    Its part of NASCAR, the Bush series is like the minors division in NASCAR. While the NEXTEL cup is the major division.

            Yes you can race in both divisions.

            Not named by him, but think about it for a second. Anheuser-Busch is the sponsor, can you guess who Kurt and Kyle Busch are related to?

                Think of the Busch Series as AAA baseball. It's one step down from the "big leagues" of NEXTEL Cup Series racing. Both are divisions of NASCAR, the sanctioning body.

                There are very minor differences between Cup and Busch cars. Busch cars have a slightly shorter wheelbase, and I think the compression ratios of the engines are slightly different. Cup cars also are allowed to run more aggressive shock packages, too.

                P.S.: I don't believe the Busch brothers are related to the Busch brewing family. Kurt Busch hardly even raced in the Busch Series before coming to Cup. He came straight from the Roush Craftsman Truck team.

                Take care,

                    Also I'm pretty sure that Busch cars weigh a little less than cup cars and there a few subtle things as well.
                    No, I didn't draft Grossman on my fantasy team, what do you think I am an idiot?

                        Wow I'm glad someone asked that question as it has always been on my mind. Here's another question:

                        Which setup is closer to the setup of the mid-late 80s? Busch or Nextel?

                            That would be the Craftsman Truck Series, only because they run close to the same horsepower, but the aerodynamics are not as much of an issue as cup or busch.
