Joe Gibbs Racing Officials have confirmed that Kyle Busch will replace Matt Tifft in this weekend's Xfinity Series Race at New Hampshire. Tifft, 20, had surgery last week to remove a slow-growing tumor. He is awaiting pathology reports before doctors can determine when can return to the race track. Tifft has competed in 7 of the 13 races he was allotted to complete with a best finish of 8th coming twice at Talladega and Dover. Tifft's next planned race will be Iowa and it's undetermined on who will drive the #18 if Matt is unable to but we hope to see Matt return at Iowa in less than 3 weeks. (Koelle,2016)
