When we lived in Bristol LilBit and would go the Fan day activities and they gave us a spot back stage.
There were a few drivers who were just very comfortable around challenged individuals such as LilBit, and he always would come in and call her, by name and just sit and they would giggle for a while.
The coolest thing he did was one year he brought her one of his racer t shirts.
And had the print shop put on the back of the shirt, he gave her,
" Kyle Busch is my biggest fan"
That was pretty cool.
