CHARLOTTE, N.C. – Kurt Busch says he is in line for his best NASCAR season ever despite a domestic violence case that could keep him off the racetrack.
Busch said Tuesday at NASCAR's annual media tour he is eager for a resolution to the highly-publicized case involving ex-girlfriend Patricia Driscoll, who claims Busch assaulted her in his motorhome at Dover International Speedway last September.
Driscoll claims Busch slammed her head into a wall three times. Busch denies the allegations, saying "it's a matter of seeing through things and understanding truth." He has not been charged by authorities.
Busch wouldn't say if he's heard from NASCAR about a possible suspension.
A court ruling on Driscoll's request for a no-contact order is expected later in the next few weeks.
