Sunday’s sketchpad from Las Vegas Motor Speedway

It was a tough weekend at Las Vegas Motor Speedway for Kyle Busch. He had an unfortunate meeting with the wall during the Nationwide Series race on Saturday and his engine decided to be uncooperative during Sunday’s Sprint Cup race. Kyle Busch is the subject of the first of three sketches I drew during Sunday’s Kobalt Tools 400.

Robby Gordon also had a rough weekend, but for much different reasons. NASCAR placed him on probation for getting into an altercation with another driver in the garage on Saturday. There’s no way I could avoid doing a cartoon on a story like that.

And the third cartoon from today is another look at Las Vegas' Kurt and Kyle Busch.
