Kyle Busch’s In-Car Camera Granted Playoff Waiver



After its serious injury in Sunday’s race at Auto Club Speedway, Nascar has granted a Cup Series Playoff waiver to Kyle Busch’s In-Car Camera.

“Because the injury to IC-CAM 2.18 occurred during the course of competition, said camera will be able to retain its chances for Playoff eligibility”, Nascar said in a prepared statement.  “As long as IC-CAM 2.18 (better known as ‘Kyle Busch’s In-Car Camera’ is able to win a points-paying Cup race in the regular season, it can qualify for the Playoffs.  And since in-car cameras don’t have to worry about flat tires, there’s a pretty good chance of that happening this year.”

Kyle Busch’s In-Car Camera had its lens shattered last Sunday, resulting in both a DNF (Did Not Focus) and a trip to a local medical/repair facility.  Injuries are believed to be serious but not warranty-threatening.

“We’re looking forward to seeing Kyle Busch’s In-Car Camera back on the track as soon as possible”, said team owner Joe Gibbs.  “IC-CAM 2.18 is expected to be cleared to race in 4-6 weeks, but the competitor that it is, we’re expecting to see it back at the shop as soon as its able.  Its just like when I was coaching the Washington…whatever the heck they’re called now—competitors compete.”

Kyle Busch’s In-Car Camera released a statement shortly after Nascar’s, registering its satisfaction with the ruling.

“To all my fans, I’m glad to receive so many Get Well Soon texts, letters, and DM’s—its really meant a lot to me”, said IC-CAM 2.18 from its repair bench.  “The doctors/techs are working ‘round the clock to get me functional and ready to race again.  And to the rock that smashed my lens, just remember—Nascar said ‘Have at it, inanimate objects.’”
