The heavy metal held Busch together after he broke his left foot and suffered a compound fracture of the right leg in the 2015 season-opening NASCAR XFINITY Series race at Daytona International Speedway.
But judging by the pictures of their Mexican vacation that Busch and wife Samantha posted Thursday morning on Twitter, the champ is in fine form.
