Kyle Busch, though once the gold standard on the racetrack, has recently found himself in choppy waters performance-wise. Despite the current dry spell, few can argue against the mettle that carried him to the pinnacle of stock car racing. <\/p>\n
While he entered motorsports early on, Busch didn\u2019t let schoolwork fall by the wayside. He graduated with honors from Durango High School in Las Vegas ahead of schedule to devote himself entirely to racing. That same year, he made his ARCA RE\/MAX Series debut at Lowe\u2019s Motor Speedway.<\/p>\n
However, in a fun change, a recent video shared by Bleacher Report hinted that most of Busch\u2019s classroom knowledge may have faded into the rearview. In a playful quiz segment modeled after \u201cAre You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader?\u201d, Busch and Austin Dillon were tested on everything from geography to literature.<\/p>\n
When asked how many continents exist, Busch missed the mark with \u201cnine,\u201d but Dillon correctly answered, \u201cseven.\u201d Things only went further south when asked about the author of Romeo and Juliet. Dillon aced it with \u201cShakespeare,\u201d while Busch threw out \u201cBeethoven,\u201d drawing raised eyebrows from fans.<\/p>\n
The two did find common ground when asked what caterpillars become, correctly answering \u201cbutterflies.\u201d But when quizzed on the process by which plants make their food, Busch waved the white flag with \u201cI don\u2019t know,\u201d while Dillon delivered \u201cphotosynthesis\u201d without missing a beat.<\/p>\n
A trick question brought some redemption: \u201cIf you have three apples and take away two, how many do you have?\u201d Busch nailed it with, \u201cSo, I took them away. So, I have two. See, it\u2019s a trick question. I hated those, man.\u201d Dillon followed suit.<\/p>\n
But the wheels came off again when they were asked how many states are in the United States. Busch answered<\/a> \u201c48,\u201d while Dillon took a wild swing with \u201c82.\u201d Both were wide of the mark. <\/p>\n They did manage to correctly identify that all months have 28 days and pegged water\u2019s freezing point at \u201c32 degrees Fahrenheit.\u201d On the final question about the world\u2019s largest ocean, Dillon scored with \u201cPacific,\u201d while Busch guessed \u201cAtlantic.\u201d<\/p>\n In the end, Dillon edged out Busch with a score of 8 to 5.<\/p>\n Fans watching from the sidelines had a field day. \u201cI\u2019m concerned for Kyle Busch,\u201d one wrote, while another quipped, \u201cWas Kyle homeschooled?\u201d One viewer joked, \u201cEven Brexton (Kyle Busch\u2019s kid) could probably get these,\u201d while another chimed in, \u201cOh my god, Kyle, I\u2019m glad you can drive, but I didn\u2019t realize it was all you can do.\u201d<\/p>\n
